The New Orleans Pelicans defeated the Philadelphia 76ers, 108 - 93, at Wells Fargo Center on Tuesday. The Pelicans (10 - 20) checked in to Tuesday with only three road victories, but with a 5 - 13 home record, the Sixers (7 - 21) did n't exactly shape up as very imposing. Accordingly, New Orleans used a standout effort from Anthony Davis (31 points, 16 boards, two assists, two blocks) and a 53 - point contribution from their bench to secure a 15 - point win. The Sixers jumped on the Pelicans early and won the first quarter by a 23 - 15 margin, but New Orleans' 42 - point second period gave them the momentum they used the rest of the way. The Pelicans' three - point shooting was particularly impressive, as they tallied a 59 percent success rate from behind the arc. Terrence Jones was New Orleans' second - leading scorer and accomplished it from the bench, posting 17 points, 10 rebounds and three assists over 30 minutes. E'Twaun Moore was next in a reserve role as well, supplying 15 points and two assists. Jrue Holiday's offensive downturn continued, but he did fill out the stat sheet with 12 points, nine assists and four rebounds, although he shot just 4 - of - 14 from the field. Buddy Hield drew the start and poured in 10 points, while also recording a rebound and an assist. Although Joel Embiid and Jahil Okafor started together once again, it was reserve big man Ersan Ilyasova who led the Sixers in scoring, totaling 14 points, four rebounds and a block. Gerald Henderson managed 13 points, three rebounds, an assist and a block. A trio of 11 - point efforts from Okafor, Embiid and Robert Covington followed, with the big men also contributing seven, six and eight rebounds, respectively. T.J. McConnell was also productive in a reserve role, supplying 10 points. The Pelicans visit the Oklahoma City Thunder on Wednesday night, while the Sixers hit the road to face the Phoenix Suns on Friday evening.
