NEW ORLEANS (AP) --- Saddiq Bey and Derik Queen each had 22 points, Zion
Williamson added 21 and the New Orleans Pelicans beat the Memphis Grizzlies
114-106 on Friday night.
Williamson had his fourth consecutive game with 20-plus points. Herb Jones
added 16 points to help the Pelicans improve to 13-37.
Cam Spencer and Jaren Jackson, Jr. each had 16 points for Memphis. Cedric
Coward added 13 and Jock Landale had 12. The Grizzlies are 18-28.
Grizzlies star guard Ja Morant was inactive for the fourth consecutive game
because of a sprained left elbow. Morant, who last played Jan. 21 against
Atlanta, has missed 25 games this season.
New Orleans outscored Memphis 35-15 in the third quarter to take a 93-76 lead.
The Pelicans made five 3-pointers in the third quarter, including three from
Jose Alvarado. New Orleans was just as stout on the defensive end, holding the
Grizzlies to its second-lowest scoring quarter of the season.
