The Raptors didn’t address their biggest short-term need at the trade deadline. There were logical reasons for that, but they’re gonna have to live with that down the stretch: theathletic.com/3130303/2022/0… – 12:19 AM

#Pelicans made 16 threes, including this one by CJ McCollum that was celebrated at the other end of the floor by Jonas Valanciunas. Tonight was the team’s most three-pointers since they hit 16 vs. Minnesota on Jan. 11. The 16th successful trey in that game you probably remember pic.twitter.com/4vI8ZsxvWt – 11:57 PM

Brandon Ingram postgame with @ESPNRadioNOLA, asked if he was upset about coming up 2 assists shy of first career triple-double: “I’m not that upset. In that fourth quarter, I’d rather have rest for a back-to-back so that I can try to do it (in another game).” – 11:41 PM

Speaking after his Raptors debut, Thad Young said he’s still trying to get acclimated to the system. Biggest challenges have been doing it without real practice time, and learning multiple positions at once. “You’re trying to learn 5 positions in 1 day.” – 10:49 PM

VanVleet got a little knee on knee hit in first half, toughed it out in 3rd quarter but it was sore and there was no sense running him back out in the 4th – 10:40 PM

Pascal Siakam had to ask his agent if getting named as an injury replacement even counts as being an all-star.
“Obviously I’d rather be picked from the jump. It’s not really on my mind… I believe I’ll be an all-star in the league for a while.”
“It’s OK. I’m cool either way.” – 10:38 PM

The Spurs’ roller-coaster 3-point ride continues. After two good nights in Atlanta and New Orleans, they fell back down to earth with Vassell going missing all 4 of his attempts from beyond the arc. Overall, they were 6 of 20 (30 percent). – 10:36 PM

VanVleet took a knock on the knee in the first half. He told Nurse to monitor it, and with the score what it was, the Raptors decided there was no sense pushing him beyond the third. – 10:27 PM

Valanciunas 18 pts & 9 rebs
Ingram 10 pts, 11 rebs & 8 assts
Pels pick up their most lopsided win of the season with dominant play on both ends of the court. They shot 58 percent from the floor, had 36 assists as a team – 10:19 PM

Pelicans biggest win of season, a 120-90 rout of Raptors. They led wire-to-wire & did number of things well.
CJ McCollum led team w/ 23 points, Jonas Valanciunas goes for 18 & 9, and Brandon Ingram filled up the box score like Draymond (?!): 10 PTS, 11 REB, 8 AST, 1 STL, 2 BLK. – 10:18 PM
![](https://pbs.twimg.com/profile_images/1326327007198769157/abGumhmj_normal.jpg)
CJ McCollum (13 FGAs) was the only Pelicans player to attempt 10 or more shots tonight. 10 players had at least 1 assist. The entire starting lineup had at least 4 assists.
Ball movement was A-1 for New Orleans. – 10:18 PM

Pelicans tie a season high with 16 3-pointers.
They set a season high with 36 assists and a 58.4 field goal percentage.
They also set a season high with a 30-point win. – 10:16 PM

Final: Pelicans 120, Raptors 90
CJ McCollum scores 23 points on 13 shots.
Brandon Ingram — 10 points, 11 rebounds, 8 assists — barely misses a triple-double.
The 30-point win is the largest margin of victory in the Willie Green era. – 10:15 PM

Outstanding timing for this blowout home win over Raptors, with the Grizzlies here tomorrow night in back-to-back. McCollum (32 minutes) was only starter for #Pelicans who logged more than 29 mins – 10:11 PM

Rare stinker for the Raptors. Shots weren’t falling, defensive focus wasn’t there, rotation was a bit of a mess. Not a great night for anybody, really. They’ll have a chance to get some of those Good Vibes back when they visit Minnesota ahead of the all-star break on Wednesday. – 10:11 PM
![](https://pbs.twimg.com/profile_images/1179913464736825344/7Tp-8ZkY_normal.jpg)
Another example of New Orleans’ great defense: Pelicans have held Raptors to only 4 fastbreak points.
They average 15.4. That’s 3rd best in the league.
If this sticks over remaining 3 minutes of action, it’ll mark Toronto’s 2nd-lowest output in a game this season. – 10:09 PM

#Pelicans are doing about as good of a job as you’ll ever see in #NBA of exploiting size advantage on a team going small. Valanciunas and Hayes continue to have a field day in the paint, punishing Toronto under the basket. They are 10/14 from field, 8/9 on free throws – 9:40 PM

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

Pelicans began this game on a great run and now they’re smoking the Raptors out of halftime. They’re up 69-44 after that CJ McCollum pull-up 3 in transition.
Incredibly impressive after the performance witnessed 48 hours ago. – 9:23 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

Spurs trail 59-57 at the break. McDermott has 14, Murray 10 and Walker 11 off the bench.
Walker, striving to become more consistent, is on his way to putting together a good night after scoring 17 on Saturday in New Orleans. – 9:05 PM

You decide which is worse
Raptors letting Pelicans shoot 58.3 per cent from the field
Or
Raptors shooting 29.4 per cent from the field themselves?
Whatever you pick, it’s why New Orleans is up 60-44 at te half – 9:05 PM
