Although Tatum hit the game-winning shot, it was a combined effort from both he and Jaylen Brown as the two combined for 55 of the team's points in their 118-116 win over the Peli

The jumper capped off a gritty performance by the Pelicans despite missing three starters (Zion Williamson, Brandon Ingram, Herbert Jones). New Orleans also lost Dejounte Murray to injury in the first quarter but Trey Murphy III made up for his absence with a game-high 40 points including eight made 3s.
