The New Orleans Pelicans (26 - 22) defeated the Atlanta Hawks (40 - 9) 115 - 110 on Monday at the Smoothie King Center in New Orleans. Looking to extend their winning streak to 20 games Monday, the Hawks came out of this game dissapointed, as the Pelicans stepped up and took an impressive 15 - point victory. The Pelicans shot pretty well, going 50 percent from the field and 39 percent from the three - point line, while the Hawks went 45 percent from the floor and 32 percent from beyond the arc. The Pelicans were also able to finish with a 52 - 32 rebounding advantage, giving them a huge upperhand and contributing even further to the win. As he's done all season long, Anthony Davis continued to show himself as one of the best players in the league. In 34 minutes, he finished with 29 points (12 - 23 FG, 5 - 7 FT), 13 rebounds and and two blocked shots. It was his fifth double - double in a row, a stretch where he's averaged 27 points, 11 rebounds and two blocks per game. Eric Gordon had a really strong showing as well, going 7 - for - 11 from the field and 4 - for - 6 from the three - point line to score 20 points, while also adding seven assists in 28 minutes. It was his second impressive game in a row, as he's combined for 48 points and 14 assists over those two matchups. Recording a double - double of his own, Tyreke Evans added 15 points (7 - 14 FG, 1 - 2 3Pt), five rebounds and 12 assists. He's recorded exactly 12 assists in four out of his last five games. The Pelicans had a huge effort off the bench as well. Ryan Anderson recorded 15 points (5 - 10 FG, 1 - 4 3Pt, 4 - 4 FT) and six rebounds, while Jimmer Fredette added 10 points (3 - 6 FG, 2 - 5 3Pt, 2 - 2 FT) and three assists. The Hawks saw their biggest contribution from Jeff Teague, who had a team - high of 21 points (8 - 17 FG, 1 - 2 3Pt, 4 - 5 FT), while also adding seven assists. He had an ugly showing in Saturday's game against Philadelphia, where he went just 3 - of - 12 from the field, so it was good to see him hit his shot more consistently Monday. Paul Millsap also did as much as he could to keep the Hawks alive, finishing with 15 points (5 - 14 FG, 0 - 3 3Pt, 5 - 6 FT), six rebounds and two blocked shots. He's now averaging 17 points and eight rebounds per game so far this season. Kent Bazemore continued to start at small forward with DeMare Carroll playing limited action off the bench due to general soreness in his body. Bazemore finished with nine points (4 - 9 FG, 0 - 2 3Pt, 1 - 3 FT) and three rebounds in 26 minutes. Both Kyle Korver and Dennis Schroder reached double figures as well, scoring 12 and 10 points respectively. The Pelicans' next game will be at home against the Oklahoma City Thunder on Wednesday, while the Hawks will be at home against the Washington Wizards on Wednesday.
