Pelicans continue dominance over Jazz as Jeremiah Fears' double-double leads the way The New Orleans Pelicans continued their impressive run against the Utah Jazz, taking down their Western Conference foes 117-106 on Tuesday night. A big factor in the victory was the performance of forward Jeremiah Fears, who recorded a double-double with 23 points and 11 rebounds. Fears, known for his energetic play and rebounding prowess, played a crucial role in the Pelicans' win. He shot an efficient 10-for-17 from the field and added three assists to his stat line as well. The forward's ability to score and grab rebounds was key in limiting Utah's interior presence and allowing New Orleans to pull away. The Pelicans got off to a strong start, building a double-digit lead early on behind Fears' hot shooting. They took a 27-17 advantage into the second quarter, where they continued to push their margin. Utah struggled to find its footing, committing turnovers and struggling to contain the Pelicans' offense. New Orleans carried that momentum into the third frame, maintaining a comfortable lead throughout. The Jazz made a late surge, but it was too little, too late. Fears and company had already done enough damage to secure the win. The Pelicans' victory marked their seventh straight over Utah, dating back to 2019. They've dominated this series in recent years, with the team's current core players being instrumental in those wins. For now, New Orleans can bask in the glow of a successful homestand against tough opponents. Next up is a road trip out west, where they'll face the Los Angeles Lakers and Golden State Warriors.#Los_Angeles_Lakers #Golden_State_Warriors #New_Orleans_Pelicans #Utah_Jazz #Jeremiah_Fears
