Nick Nurse and the Philadelphia 76ers explain what went wrong in the loss to CJ McCollum and the New Orleans Pelicans.

The Milwaukee Bucks have put a slow start behind them and are playing some of their best basketball of the season. They'll face another team that is playing better of late when they visit the New Orleans Pelicans on Wednesday night.

Tyrese Maxey had 30 points, 12 assists, and six rebounds for Philadelphia. Paul George had 25 points and 11 rebounds with five assists, Kelly Oubre Jr. added 21 points and seven rebounds, and Ricky Council IV added 13. Guerschon Yabusele added six and seven rebounds.

CJ McCollum scored 38 points to lead a New Orleans Pelicans team playing without the suspended Zion Williamson past the 76ers 123-115 on Friday night.

CJ McCollum scored 38 points as the short-handed New Orleans Pelicans opened a three-game road trip with a 123-115 victory over the Philadelphia 76ers on Friday.

Hawkins is in his third season and likely part of the Pelicans' future. McCollum is 33 with one year left on his contract beyond this one. With the win only bringing the Pelicans to 8-31, he's a likely trade candidate, whether it's before this year's deadline or in the summer.

The Pelicans took an 87-78 lead into the fourth quarter when Alvarado drained a 3-pointer at the buzzer. They stretched the lead to 94-83 on an Alvarado assist to Theis, who finished the play with a slam. Hawkins’ four-point play with 6:49 left boosted the Pelicans' lead to 105-92.
