This outcome was somewhat expected considering the injury occurred against the Warriors and then he really gutted it out against the Lakers at less than 100%.

Whatever you may think of Zion Williamson, the Pelicans have statistically been a better team with him on the floor than off to this point of the season.
In 309 on-court minutes, the Pels have a 112.0 ORTG and 115.0 DTRG.
In 709 off-the-court minutes, the team has a 107.3 ORTG and a 121.2 DRTG.

Welp, Zion Williamson is going to be on the shelf for a bit again. Per ESPN’s Shams Charania: “New Orleans Pelicans star Zion Williamson will miss extended time with a right adductor injury, sources tell ESPN. He will be re-evaluated in three weeks.”

Since this 2023 tweet, NBA refs have awarded the Lakers 1,165 more free throws than their opponents. That’s more than twice the next highest differential. In 18 games this season, they’ve already been gifted 108 extra free throws, 41 more than the next team.

Fun fact: Despite trailing 108-92 overall, the Pelicans beat the Lakers 35-31 in third quarter. It's just the fourth time in 21 games this season that the Pels have won a third quarter -- and tonight's four-point differential marks the biggest disparity to date.

Don't understand calling a double technical foul there. At all. Jeremiah Fears prevented Luka Doncic from scoring an unabated And-1. (There was NO hint of a hostile act to even warrant a replay review.) Yet Luka was the one to go to Fears in a confrontational manner.
Comical, NBA.
