The Pelicans are 1st in the West. At 17-8, they have matched their best start through 25 games in franchise history.
They have done this while Brandon Ingram has missed 10 games.
With this version of Zion on this roster, New Orleans can be contenders. nola.com/sports/pelican… – 2:13 PM

Last night, Zion Williamson recorded his 10th career 30-point game with 75% shooting from the field.
The only other players in NBA history to record at least 10 such games before their 23rd birthday are Shaquille O’Neal (11) and Dwight Howard (10).

Mikal Bridges led the NBA in minutes played last season 2,854. That number would have placed him 38th in 2003.
That year Iverson led the lNBA with 3,485 minutes. Kobe was second at 3,401. Michael Jordan, age 39, played 3,031 minutes. Karl Malone, 39, played 2,936. – 1:32 PM

Zion Williamson’s dunk wasn’t the real reason behind last night’s Pels-Suns altercation.
It only confirmed the tension that’s existed since last April.
But it will go down as the spark that ignited a new NBA rivalry the Pels are more than happy to join.

A reminder that the Suns are 29th in the NBA in frequency of shots at the rim (28.9%, per Cleaning The Glass).
At a certain point, the FT disparity is a personnel/player tendencies issue, not an officiating issue. And we’re well past that point. – 1:07 AM

Zion’s dunk was not the usual “running up the score” or “stat-padding” layup which usually triggers postgame altercations. This was a “die, bitch” dunk from hell. These teams just played a grueling playoff series against each other, and are now atop the West. All is fair. – 11:25 PM

Gets him in trouble.
Didn’t get any points out of a possession he had ball at the rim.
Scores on next trip. Has 16 on 7-of-9 FGs. #Suns down five as Williamson scores on other end. – 9:51 PM

Been watching Devin Booker for 4-plus seasons.
Seen him have some off nights, but he’s just not himself right now.
Has 6 points on 2-of-10 shooting, but it’s his body language.
However, I’ve seen him instantly turn it on.

Jaylen’s All-NBA case looks better when you start to think about who’ll be a guard & center. Davis MIGHT squeeze in at forward, but I’d be surprised. Same with Porzingis/Sabonis. Ton of forwards like Kawhi, George, Butler, LeBron, Zion, Bane, Siakam have faced injuries. – 8:44 AM

A heads up for those going to Pelicans tonight:
Give yourself a lot more time than usual to get to the arena.
Every year this is the worst traffic game of the season, with HS football state championships occurring in the Dome simultaneously.
Also, 7:30 p.m. tip-off, not 7. – 7:55 AM
