The New Orleans Pelicans ( 25 - 42 ) defeated the Sacramento Kings ( 26 - 41 ) 123 - 108 at Sleep Train Arena on Wednesday . Anthony Davis and Ryan Anderson put on a scoring clinic in the blowout , as both players took advantage of their matchups against the struggling Kings . Sacramento is 1 - 9 over their last 10 games and the team has fallen off the wagon since the all - star break . Anthony Davis got off to a strong start and dominated in the second quarter , where his team ended the half with a 21 point lead . Davis scored 27 points and grabbed 14 rebounds on 10 - of - 20 shooting , while Ryan Anderson was lethal in 26 minutes off the bench and finished with 29 points that included five baskets from behind the arc . Omer Asik has received sporadic minutes over the last few games , but earned the starting nod on Wednesday after not playing any minutes on Monday . Asik contributed a lowly five points , to go along with four rebounds in the unimpressive performance . New Orleans shot selection was all but unstoppable for Sacramento , as they shot 54 percent as a unit . The Kings look monotonous since dropping off in the playoff chase , and their struggle on the defensive end of the floor has opened up blowout losses . They entered the game without the depth of Rajon Rondo ( thumb/shoulder ) and Marco Belinelli ( ankle ) , which posed major mismatches in the backcourt . The help defense at the rim was also absent , save for DeMarcus Cousins doing whatever he can to keep his team in the game . Cousins finished with 20 points , 12 rebounds , five assists and two blocks on 8 - of - 21 shooting , while Darren Collison impressed on the offensive end with 23 points , which included a perfect 3 - of - 3 from deep . After the brutal second quarter , the Kings bounced back in the third quarter and chipped six points off lead , but it was far from enough to bring the game close enough to compete . Both teams play on Friday , as the Kings will visit the Detroit Pistons ( 34 - 34 ) , while the Pelicans will host the Damian Lillard and the Portland Trail Blazers ( 35 - 33 ) .
