The Pelicans appeared to have it put away.

Under 30 seconds were left in regulation, and New Orleans had a 106-100 lead over Indiana.

But, Victor Oladipo hit a 29 foot three pointer to cut the New Orleans lead in half. And, on the next possession, Lonzo Ball had the ball stolen by Oladipo.

The ball then went to a wide open Myles Turner, who hit a 26 foot three point shot to tie the game.

Indiana won in overtime, 118-116, Monday night at the Smoothie King Center.
