Team	SP/RL	TOTAL	ML

The New Orleans Pelicans have been pushing themselves to get to a good playoff spot in the NBA Western Conference. They are still far from getting there as their momentum from their back-to-back games were halted by the mighty Milwaukee Bucks during their most recent game. The loss was just by four points but it is a moral victory for the Pelicans to keep it close with a title contender. Zion Williamson manned up and got 34 points, eight rebounds and six assists while matching up with “The Greek Freak”. Mt. Zion is also heading to his first NBA All-Star Game in his very young career.

The San Antonio Spurs were surprised to be defeated by the Oklahoma City Thunder during their last game but the team is coming off from a 10-day break with players having to serve quarantine time. It was a shorthanded team with no DeMar DeRozan during that game. LaMarcus Aldridge came off the bench and provided 11 points and seven rebounds. DeJounte Murray led the team with 27 points while Patty Mills did 15 points as well. The Spurs defense was not on cue but things should warm up to them as more games come along in the next few days.
