Swider led the way with 21 points, 10 rebounds, and 4 threes, showing off his floor-spacing ability. Bronny James bounced back from a slow shooting start to finish with 14 points, 3 assists, and a couple of tough finishes at the rim.

For the Pelicans, Derik Queen recorded his second straight double-double, finishing with 12 points and 13 rebounds, continuing to showcase his physical presence inside. Antonio Reeves scored a team-high 20 points, going a perfect 7-for-7 from the line, while Jeremiah Fears struggled with efficiency (5-21 FG) but added 15 points and showed his quick-trigger mentality.

Fantasy Takeaways:
Swider looks like a ready-made shooting specialist who can contribute in deeper fantasy formats if he finds a role. Koloko’s rim protection and efficiency continue to intrigue, especially in dynasty leagues. Bronny’s development remains a watchlist situation—he’s flashing IQ and effort, even if the polish is still coming. For New Orleans, Queen is quickly becoming a rebounding machine and should be monitored closely.
