Los Angeles (34-35) started the game on a 14-0 run until New Orleans (33-36) called a timeout with 8:34 left in the first period. Following the timeout, it took the Pelicans until there were nearly five minutes remaining in the opening period to surpass 10 points.

With injuries surrounding both teams – including Los Angeles star Lebron James still being out with a foot injury – Lakers forward Anthony Davis led all scorers with 35 points on 11 of 18 shooting.

Zelenskyy showed openness to talks, emphasizing the need for lasting peace and a strong Ukrainian army. European leaders seek durable security assurances and pressure on Russia to cease fighting.
