A historic collapse by the Pelicans in the fourth quarter on Friday saw the Suns stun New Orleans for a 132-114 victory.
Leading by 11 points entering the fourth, the Pelicans were outscored 41-12 in the fourth quarter, the worst point differential in one quarter in franchise history, per Andrew Lopez of ESPN.
Prior to the fourth, the Pelicans looked in control and on their way to a potential big win led by the trio of Lonzo Ball, Brandon Ingram and Zion Williamson each scoring at least 20 points.
However, that trio managed just two points in the fourth quarter as the Suns pulled off the stunning comeback on the back of Chris Paul, who finished with 15 points and 19 assists in the win.
For New Orleans, Ingram had 25 points, Williamson 23 and Ball 21 points to go along with 12 assists. The loss is the fifth in the last six games for the Pelicans.
