Zion Williamson scored 25 points including nine in overtime, Jeremiah Fears hit two free throws with 7.3 seconds left, and the New Orleans Pelicans handed the Memphis Grizzlies their first loss of the season, 135-134 on Monday night.
The Pelicans’ third straight win snapped the Grizzlies’ six-game winning streak to open the season. Memphis was the NBA’s last undefeated team, its 6-0 start matching the best season-opening streak in franchise history.
Ty Jerome had 40 for Memphis, but his last-second 15-footer missed.
