The Pelicans have relied heavily on their rookie class this season.
Trey Murphy, Herb Jones and Jose Alvarado all had their moments down the stretch.
Without them, New Orleans wouldn’t even been in this position.

Chris Paul last night:
✅ 22 PTS
✅ 11 AST
✅ 1 TOV
It’s the 12th time Paul has recorded at least 20p/10a with one or fewer turnovers in a playoff game.
Since the NBA began tracking individual turnovers in 1977-78, no other player has recorded more than eight such games. pic.twitter.com/uWnBUb0wGG – 9:11 AM
