Buddy Hield and the Golden State Warriors are proving that they are on a mission to prove that their depth is unmatched in the league following an incredible win against the New Orleans Pelicans on the night of the game.
With star players Stephen Curry and Andrew Wiggins out due to injuries, their team faced a tough task against a heavily talented Pelicans side on the court. However, nothing could have prepared the crowd for the unimaginable turn of events as the Warriors were down by an alarming 20 points in the early stages of the game.
The Golden State Warriors needed something magical to happen, and in stepped Hield and youngster Brandin Podziemski. Hield conjured up an otherworldly performance of a season-best 28 points to lead from the front, but it was Podziemski's adrenaline-fueled display of offense and tenacious defense that proved to be the X-factor and the difference in helping his team register an impressive win on the night.
Podziemski added all-around 19 points on the night to lead a second-half resurrection. Hield nailed seven long-range shots in the attempt and also dished out four assists and made valuable contributions on the defensive end to bolster his team’s title prospects for the season ahead.
The Pelicans took the game to the opposition early on, reaching their biggest lead early on in the first quarter. Zion Williamson then became the focus of attention as he narrowly missed his career high on the way to getting a season-high score on the night in what could have been a lot closer game had the Pelicans been able to carry on and replicate their performance in both halves.
Despite Williamson's ominous presence on the court and an incredible show of his skillset, Williamson failed to prevent Hield from breaking his record of consecutive long-range shots after he achieved such an impressive feat earlier in the year.
Although Kevin Durant extended his streak to six games on the night as well, his points were overshadowed by a dramatic comeback by the Golden State Warriors in the second half to crush any spirit left in their opponent’s quest to upstage their win.
