PHOTOS: Best images from the Thunder’s 103-100 loss to the Pelicans

The Oklahoma City Thunder couldn’t overcome a 20-point deficit and lost to the New Orleans Pelicans, 103-100, on Monday.

As has been the theme for the entire season, when the Thunder had a chance to pull their record to .500, they failed to do so.

Without Zion Williamson or CJ McCollum, the Pelicans were led by Brandon Ingram, who finished with 34 points.

For the Thunder, they struggled to score points after entering the night as the best offense in the league since Jan. 1.

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander finished with 24 points and 10 rebounds while Jalen Williams had 22 points.

Let’s take a look at some of the best photos from the Thunder’s three-point loss.
