How good has the Pelicans defense been? I can remember very few open 3-pointers for Toronto so far and they’ve scored 18 of their 22 points in the paint on second chances.
New Orleans has done a great job of making their lives a living hell for most of possessions. – 9:36 PM

After a couple relatively quiet games, Jaxson Hayes has been very active, feasting on cutting to the basket for dunks or flashing to the right spot. Hayes 10 pts on 4/5 FG in only 12 mins – 9:34 PM

Pelicans up 60-44 on the Raptors at halftime — feels like best 1st half of the season. Outside of keeping the Raps off the offensive glass, looked like a complete performance on both ends.
9 players have scored for Nola, with CJ McCollum’s 12 leading the way. – 9:06 PM

Worst Raptors half in a while. Would appear a few of these guys are already on vacation. Raps are shooting 29% (Trent/Anunoby/Barnes: 2-18 FG), and they’ve probably been even worse defensively. Pels lead 60-44 at the break. – 9:06 PM

Nothing of note pre-game from Nick Nurse.
Everyone’s available “and then some” he said, acknowledging we may very well see Thaddeus Young make his Toronto debut in New Orleans – 7:18 PM

“He’s picking things up well, and I’d imagine you’ll see him out there tonight.” – 6:43 PM

Brandon Ingram has a total of 5 assists in the last 3 games.
The Pels need him to get back into that playmaking groove he found before the CJ trade. – 2:12 PM
