The Pelicans trailed by 25 points before rallying, mostly behind McCollum, to win their fourth straight and seventh in the last 10. It's been an incredible midseason turnaround for New Orleans, which has gone 12-32 while battling through a rash of key injuries and illnesses.

New Orleans takes on the Memphis Grizzlies after CJ McCollum scored 45 points in the Pelicans' 123-119 overtime victory over the Utah Jazz.

Taylor Jenkins got ahead of Valentine's Day when explaining why the Grizzlies "love" what rookie Jaylen Wells did against LaMelo Ball.

McCollum has shouldered more of the scoring load in games the Pelicans have been without Zion Williamson. He is averaging 30.6 points in January in the seven games Williamson has missed. McCollum is averaging just 13 points in the four games Williamson also played.
