Zion Williamson says Pelicans wanted to ‘keep momentum’ heading into All-Star break | NBA on ESPN

Our break Zion how important was it to get this W going into that break you know uh we got a few wins and we just wanted to keep that momentum going in the break do you feel like it was a gamechanging shift cuz it got really tough the end of the second quarter

Beginning of the third that little scuffle between Larry Larry Nance Jr and Larry shamut uh I think it was just uh some miscommunication but uh the end today no matter what the record says they’re still an NBA team they’re a good team and we got to be able to close games I

Love the miscommunication that’s great all right I know they ended up calling it Go tending but nonetheless walk us through that block on Advia that was just fantastic we want to see that again and again I think it was N Garden Hill and I saw that he lost his balance so I

Knew he couldn’t go dunky so I knew he was going to have to float it when I got it I thought it was a block but what the r made they call we all thought it was a block too we’re with you I’m glad you brought up Nai how important was your

Bench tonight all those steals all that energy that was very important I mean our bench is important us they bring the energy every game whether some guys play whether some don’t but I mean we’re a close team and like I say we want to keep that momentum going in the break

What do you think this looks like after the All-Star break what does that stretch run that Sprint to the postseason look like for this squad we all got to wait and see Z enjoy the break get some rest thanks for your time thank you no problem enjoy your night [Applause] is
