Shortly after Zion Williamson's second triple-double in two weeks, he was asked whether he might be in the best shape of his career, and if he'd really shed as many as 20 pounds from his listed weight of 284.

The Pelicans have the second-worst record in the Western Conference at 18-48. New Orleans has dealt with multiple injuries all season to every member of its rotation, most notably from guard Dejounte Murray, who only played 31 games this season before he ruptured his right Achilles tendon, which ended his season on Jan. 31.

The New Orleans Pelicans picked up a 127-120 win over the Los Angeles Clippers at home on Tuesday night. Star power forward Zion Williamson stole the show, scoring 22 points with 10 rebounds and 12 assists while shooting 8-of-13 from the field and 6-of-6 from the free-throw line.
