On March 29, Beijing time, the NBA regular season continued, and the Pelicans, who ranked fifth in the West, sat at home to face the Bucks, who ranked second in the East. Zion scored 28 points, and the Pelicans beat the Bucks, trailing the Clippers by just 0.5 games.
In the opening stage, both teams did not shoot well, especially the Pelicans' 1 of 10 from the outside was particularly sluggish, but the success rate of hitting the interior was very good, Zion scored a strong end one after another, and the score was never pulled away. Beasley hit a three-pointer from the Bucks, and the Bucks were back in the box, with a one-point deficit of 25-26 in the first quarter.
In the second quarter, the Bucks' offense was in trouble, encountering a tight defense, and the frequent selection of shots was quite inefficient, Lillard's ability to improve his ability to solve problems needs to be improved, and no one on the team could step up and take over the game. Wallan's mid-range containment worked, and the Pelicans blossomed inside and outside to play a small surge, and McCollum scored 11 points to give him a 16-point lead at halftime, 61-45.
In the second half, Brother Alphabet turned on his personal scoring mode, crushing the restricted area and no one could stop him, slashing 20 points in a single quarter, but the free throws were slightly flawed, and the Bucks once closed the point difference, but unfortunately the team failed to hold it, McCollum and Murphy threw three points to stop the bleeding, and the Pelicans made a strong effort to grasp the conversion again to consolidate the advantage, leading by 12 points at 85-73 in the third quarter.
In the final quarter, Lillard broke through to 2+1, Zion faced Brother Alphabet and scored hard and caused a foul, the situation became more and more intense, and Lillard chased down his three-point shot in the remaining 3 and a half minutes to only 5 points, and the suspense returned. In the final moments, Zion attacked the basket with the ball in a row, causing foul free throws to score, and the Pelicans beat the Bucks 107-100 at the end of the game.
Zion had 28 points and 5 rebounds on 9-of-15 shooting, McCollum had 25 points + 7 rebounds and 7 assists, Murphy and Wallan both had double-doubles, and Antetokounmpo had 35 points + 14 rebounds. The Pelicans are still 0.5 wins behind the Clippers at 45-28, and the race for fourth place is still fierce, with both teams looking to gain home-court advantage in the playoffs.
