A complete performance from the New Orleans Pelicans led them to a 109-99 victory against the Memphis Grizzlies tonight. Crucial contributions from Zion Williamson, Brandon Ingram, JJ Redick and Jrue Holiday helped them overcome the eighth seed in tonight's much needed win.The Memphis Grizzlies got great production off the bench from Grayson Allen and Brandon Clarke. Jaren Jackson Jr. led the scoring for the Grizzlies with 22 points. But the major talking point was Ja Morant's shooting slump. He scored just 11 points in 39 minutes of action.Pumped to tune into this Grizzlies & Pelicans game tonight, Should feel like a Playoff Game considering the standings for the Potential Play in Tourney!— Shake4ndbake (@ItsShake4ndbake) August 3, 2020New Orleans Pelicans take the first quarterBoth teams got off to slow starts in the first quarter with New Orleans Pelicans leading 7-6 at the eight minute mark.

Jaren Jackson Jr. was leading the scoring for the Memphis Grizzlies while Morant struggled to get the ball to the basket.I know Morant gets all the attention, but Jackson Jr will probably end up their best player longterm. And that’s not a knock to Ja. I think JJJ is that good.— Nate Jones (@JonesOnTheNBA) August 4, 2020Ja Morant is in PRISON— Jason Maples (@JJMaples55_MST) August 3, 2020When Zion went to the bench midway through the fourth quarter, nobody expected him to be back. However, after getting a breather, he returned and dominated by scoring 6 straight points for the New Orleans Pelicans.Zion went through Ja like a knife through hot butter pic.twitter.com/8KXPlndXJv— Barstool Sports (@barstoolsports) August 4, 2020Zion driving to the rim pic.twitter.com/2GhC5o3Yil— BEAN 🏁🏁🏁 (@MGRADS) August 4, 2020Ja Morant's shooting woes continued. He kept attempting shot after shot but struggled to make them consistently. Brandon Ingram showed us his All Star level performance with several tough shots in the fourth quarter. Ingram was crucial to the Pelicans offense while Zion was off the floor.Whenever Brandon Ingram hits a shot pic.twitter.com/EwMwD2NAvP— .

STILL: 23/7/five. And he was finally allowed to finish the game vs Griz, which clearly meant a lot to his team. Imagine what would happen if he could get himself right.— Skip Bayless (@RealSkipBayless) August 4, 2020The New Orleans Pelicans ended up breezing through the final minutes of the fourth quarter as they won a game that could potentially be a match-up in the play in tournament at the end of the regular season.Also Read: Denver Nuggets 121-113 Oklahoma City Thunder: Twitter gasps as Chris Paul misses clutch free throw and loses the plot in overtime
