Bucks-Pelicans Preview

The New Orleans Pelicans seem headed for a third straight last-place finish in the Southwest Division, but Anthony Davis is certainly providing hope for the future.

Davis looks to build on a superb performance and help the Pelicans continue their dominance of the league-worst Milwaukee Bucks on Friday night.

New Orleans (24-37) is in 12th place in the Western Conference and had lost eight in a row before Davis had 28 points and 15 rebounds in a 132-125 road win over the Lakers on Tuesday night.

Davis hit seven of his first eight shots after going 5 for 20 from the floor while totaling 21 points and eight boards over the previous two games.

"We needed this win to get back on track and we needed to get back in rhythm," he said. "We came out and played with a lot of intensity. I was just trying to come out and be aggressive. I know I didn't play the best in the last two games, so I had to be aggressive."

The All-Star forward, who turns 21 next week, leads the Pelicans with 20.2 points, 10.0 rebounds and 2.9 blocks per game. He has a chance to become the youngest player to average at least 20.0 points, 10.0 boards and 3.0 blocked shots since blocks were first recorded in 1973-74.

Davis can become the first player of any age to hit those marks since Shaquille O'Neal did it with the Lakers in 1999-00.

"For a guy that sets such a high bar - to be 20 years old and have all those expectations - who at 20 is playing like him? In the history of the game, there are very few," coach Monty Williams said. "So when he has nights off, and everybody wonders what's wrong, he's entitled. The way he's played, and as good as he's gotten, I don't know who else is going to win Most Improved Player."

Davis got in foul trouble and was limited to 12 points and one rebound in 19 minutes of a 102-98 road win over the Bucks (12-48) on Feb. 12.

Eric Gordon picked up the slack with 21 points, and he scored 28 against the Lakers.

The Pelicans have won 13 of the past 15 meetings with the Bucks and 11 straight at home since a 108-93 defeat Jan. 27, 2003.

Milwaukee has dropped 11 of 12 on the road while surrendering an average of 106.6 points and 48.0 percent shooting, including 42.0 from 3-point range.

The Bucks fell to 2-21 against the West with a 116-102 loss to visiting Sacramento on Wednesday.

"You can't dwell on it too much," said guard Brandon Knight, who had 25 points. "In the moment, of course you want to win and play well. We might not be vying for a playoff position, but I think we're playing to build the right habits so that we can come into next season strong."

Knight has scored 22 points in each of his last two meetings with New Orleans.

Bucks starting forward Ersan Ilyasova won't play due to a one-game suspension for punching Sacramento's Reggie Evans in the stomach Wednesday.

Davis leads Pelicans over Bucks 112-104

NEW ORLEANS (AP) Anthony Davis has one game left to show why he's the best player under 21 years old in the NBA.

For the past two games, he's looked rather good for any age, and has pulled the Pelicans out of a slump.

Davis had 29 points and 14 rebounds and New Orleans defeated Milwaukee 112-104 on Friday night.

Tyreke Evans scored 25 points for the Pelicans, who've won two straight after losing their previous eight games.

"It feels good to get back in rhythm, winning some games," said Davis, who'll get to celebrate his 21st birthday in the Big Easy on Tuesday. "We know how that eight-game losing streak is and we don't want to get back to it, and we've got to keep working."

Davis, who hit 12 of 22 shots on an array of layups, crowd-pleasing dunks and mid-range jumpers, is shooting 58 percent (22 of 38) in his past two games. He had 28 points and 15 rebounds in a victory over the Lakers in Los Angeles on Tuesday night.

The 6-foot-6 Evans, meanwhile, has been thriving since being moved from the bench into the starting lineup in the small forward spot.

He had 24 points against the Lakers and 27 on Monday night in a loss at Sacramento. Being on the floor with Davis, who draws so much attention from opposing defenses, has certainly helped, he said.

"It's been fun. That's the way it's supposed to be," Evans said. "We both like to play together. We both work hard. To see us both going like that, it just makes things better for our team."

Anthony Morrow added 16 points for New Orleans, including a 3-pointer as he was fouled to give the Pelicans their largest lead at 100-90 with 4:50 left. Brian Roberts scored 14 and Eric Gordon 12 for New Orleans.

"We let Anthony Morrow get away from us. He made some shots going down the stretch," Bucks coach Larry Drew said. "We have a game plan against Davis and Tyreke Evans and Gordon and guys like that. It's the guys off the bench who end up hurting us."

Khris Middleton scored 25 for Milwaukee, which lost its second straight. Jeff Adrien added a career-high 20 points to go with 10 rebounds, while Ramon Sessions had 16 points and Brandon Knight 15.

Milwaukee entered the game without starting forward Ersan Ilyasova, suspended for throwing a punch in a game Wednesday. The Bucks then lost guard O.J. Mayo to an ejection for a flagrant-2 foul late in the first quarter. With Ilyasova out, John Henson was thrust into the starting lineup, drawing the assignment of defending Davis.

"He's tough, man. Just as far as the activity, they run a lot of stuff where they pull out the side on a pick and roll for him," Henson said. "He attacks or he shoots the jump shot, and that's kind of what they got going over there and it really helped to push the lead up to where we couldn't come back."

There were 24 lead changes in what turned out to be a highly competitive, action-filled game between a pair of struggling teams.

The Pelicans shot 50 percent (42 of 84) but were unable to build a significant lead because the Bucks shot 45 percent (40 of 89) even without Ilyasova and Mayo, who together average 23 points per game.

Milwaukee led 79-78 after Sessions' driving layup opened the fourth quarter, but Davis' driving layup and 15-foot jumper sparked a 10-2 run that put the Pelicans in front for good.

Neither team led by more than five points in the first half, when there were 20 lead changes.

Mayo had taken only one missed shot when he was ejected after less than three minutes on the court.

Mayo collided with Pelicans center Greg Stiemsma, who was setting a screen, then appeared to shove Stiemsma with a flailing arm to the chest. Pelicans coach Monty Williams rushed in to pull Stiemsma away. Officials initially called a flagrant foul, but upgraded the severity to a flagrant-2 after video review.

"I reacted the wrong way and handled it for sure the wrong way," Mayo said. "I want to apologize to the Bucks fan base, the city of Milwaukee and obviously New Orleans and the (fans) who came out and watched the game. It's definitely the wrong way to conduct yourself. I've got to be better and I will."

Still, the Bucks were clinging to a one-point lead before Roberts hit a 5-foot floater as he was fouled for a three-point play, giving New Orleans a 51-49 halftime lead.

NOTES: Davis has now surpassed 20 points and 10 rebounds in a game 21 times this season, and he has 29 double-doubles overall. ... Pelicans reserve center Jeff Withey, a rookie, grabbed a career-high eight rebounds in 14:29. ... Middleton's 25 points were more than double his average of 11.7 coming in and four short of his career high.

Notebook: Pelicans 112, Bucks 104

THE FACT: The Pelicans earned their 25th win of the season, pulling to within two games of last season's win total with 20 more games to play.

THE LEAD: The New Orleans Pelicans relied on forwards Anthony Davis and Tyreke Evans on Friday to hold off the short-handed Milwaukee Bucks 112-104.

Davis put up a game-high 29 points while grabbing 14 rebounds and recording five assists while Evans added 23 points and seven assists to help the Pelicans (25-37) win two straight for the first time in a month.

Milwaukee (12-49) began the game without starting forward Ersan Ilyasova after he was suspended by the NBA for throwing a punch in the Bucks' Wednesday night game. When the two teams met in early February, Ilyasova helped keep Davis to just 12 points.

But without 6-foot-10 lane clogger, Davis had free reign and took advantage. The Pelicans' 6-10 All-Star scored seven points in the fourth quarter, along with bringing down two rebounds and having two assists to pace the Pelicans to a game-changing 34-point fourth quarter.

Evans, meanwhile, hit all six free-throw attempts he took in the final 2 minutes, 18 seconds to keep the game out of reach.

It wasn't just Davis and Evans, however.

Reserve guard Anthony Morrow pitched in 16 points off the bench while Brian Roberts added 14. It didn't help Milwaukee's game plan to lose O.J. Mayo late in the first quarter for the game due to a Flagrant 2 foul for throwing a punch at New Orleans' Greg Stiemsma.

Reserve forward Jeff Adrien did his part for the Bucks, putting up career-high 20 points and 10 rebounds off the bench. And starter Khris Middleton had 25 points

But Milwaukee couldn't keep up with the Pelicans in the end.

QUOTABLE: "It's a big win for us. Any win is a big win for us."
-- Pelicans coach Monty Williams

THE STAT: 8 of 20 and 5 of 20 -- That's what the Pelicans shot from outside and what the Bucks converted from 3-point range. In a game that ended with an eight-point spread, those three made 3-pointers turned out to be the difference.

TURNING POINT: The Pelicans trailed 77-72 with just two minutes to go in the third quarter. And then the Bucks were forced into bad shots and New Orleans found its groove. The ensuing 16-4 run by the Pelican gave them the lead for good on a night when there were 24 lead changes.

QUOTABLE II: "Not taking anything away from individuals, but we go into the game and we have a game against Davis and Tyreke Evans and (Eric) Gordon and guys like that. It's the guys off the bench who end up hurting us."
-- Milwaukee coach Larry Drew on watching the Pelicans' Morrow put in 16 off the bench

HOT: The Bucks' Adrien went 4-for-5 in the first half for a team-high 14 points off the bench. He also was 6 of 7 from the free-throw line in the opening 24 minutes and was a big reason Milwaukee trailed by only two at the break.

NOT: New Orleans' Alexis Ajinca went just 0-for-1 and played only 12½ minutes thanks to foul trouble. It's his fifth straight game with foul issues, having committed five against both the Lakers and the Kings. He fouled against the Clippers and had four against Phoenix to begin his string of problems.

NOTABLE: In the first half, the Bucks' 18 made baskets all came from inside the paint. Milwaukee was 0-for-14 outside of the paint. ... The Pelicans' Evans is averaging 21.8 points and 7.0 assists per game as a starter. He has four straight with 20 points for the first time since late 2010. ... New Orleans rookie center Jeff Withey grabbed a career-high eight rebounds on his 24th birthday.

UP NEXT: For the Pelicans, Sunday vs. Denver, Wednesday vs. Memphis, Friday vs. Portland. For the Bucks, Saturday vs. Washington, Monday vs. Orlando, Tuesday @ Minnesota.
