Pelicans vs Cavs Recap: Tired Pels Fall 141-118 | PPR FINAL

The Pelicans vs Cavs recap breaks down a tough night in Cleveland as a tired New Orleans squad saw its five-game winning streak snapped in a 141-118 loss to the Cavaliers.
Big Q recaps the matchup, including postgame comments from head coach James Borrego, as Cleveland pulled away in the second half behind a balanced attack. Donovan Mitchell scored 27 points, Sam Merrill added 22, and the Cavaliers had nine players score in double figures, marking one of the most efficient offensive performances in franchise history.
The Cavaliers scored at least 139 points for the second straight game and got 57 points from their bench, while Zion Williamson scored 26 points off the bench for New Orleans. Derik Queen added 21, but a decisive 17-4 run in the third quarter sealed the outcome.
Big Q dives into:
• Fatigue and rotation concerns
• Defensive breakdowns
• Bench production disparity
• What this loss means moving forward
