New Orleans Pelicans 10/27
Postgame wrap: Rockets 126, Pelicans 123 | New Orleans Pelicans
HOUSTON – Only three games into the season, New Orleans was already without two-fifths of its planned starting lineup Saturday, after Jrue Holiday was ruled out due to a left knee sprain, joining Zion Williamson on the inactive list. The Pelicans still remained competitive in a tough road matchup with Houston, but it ended up being a similar refrain to their previous two games, resulting in a narrow defeat. New Orleans lost in OT to Toronto, by seven points to Dallas and three to Houston.
