E'Twaun Moore stays hot with season-high 31 points in Pelicans' loss
New Orleans Pelicans guard E'Twaun Moore scored 31 points (13-of-23 field goals, 4-of-8 3-pointers, 1-of-4 free throws) with 4 rebounds, 4 assists, 1 steal, and 2 turnovers in 38.2 minutes of a 107-100 loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves on Wednesday.
What It Means:
Moore is a scorching 33-of-51 from the field (64.7 percent) over the last three games and he's now scored 30-plus in back-to-back outings. Unfortunately, Elfrid Payton (ankle) is on the edge of a return, which will likely slice into Moore's playing time. The Pelicans host the New York Knicks on Friday.
Moore scored 42.8 FanDuel points on Wednesday. He's averaging 40.4 FanDuel points over the last two games, compared to 24.0 FanDuel points overall this season.
