Pelicans lead the Bulls 40-25 at the end of the 1st quarter. They hit 5 of 7 from deep (71.4%) and 16 of 22 overall (72.7%). Devonte Graham (9 points) & Jaxson Hayes (8 points) are your leading scorers.
The offense and roster depth already highlighted 12 minutes into preseason. – 10:07 PM

40 points allowed in the first quarter … Bulls have 8 turnovers and allowed NOLA to shoot 72% from the field. We call that mid-season form. – 10:06 PM

Scoring 40 in the first quarter of the first preseason game is not going to dial back unrealistic expectations for this Pelicans team – 10:06 PM

The Pelicans lead 40-25 after one. The Bulls are giving up way too many easy baskets, and not generating many for themselves.
New Orleans shot 16 of 22 (72.7 percent) in the first quarter. Bulls offensive movement and balance looks better. Their defense does not. – 10:05 PM

Zion looks so much healthier and happier than anytime I’ve seen him in a Pelicans uniform.
We’ll see how it all plays out, but it’s a striking difference. It resembles the Zion we saw at Duke a whole lot more than the first three years as a pro. – 9:49 PM

Zion Williamson’s first bucket is an And-1 putback, and after an easy Valanciunas lay-in, the Pelicans lead the Bulls by a 13-4 score.
The offense is showing no issues (different story for the Bulls D), even without Brandon Ingram, in less than 3 minutes of action. – 9:45 PM
