The New Orleans Pelicans welcomed Zion Williamson back to the court Tuesday night against the Minnesota Timberwolves. Despite the star's return, Minnesota won its second game in as many nights, defeating the Pelicans 104-97.

It wasn’t enough though as the Pelicans fell to the Minnesota Timberwolves 104-97 Tuesday night at Smoothie King Center. The Pelicans (7-30) were hoping Williamson’s return could keep the momentum going from the past four days when the team won back-to-back games for just the second time this season.

Williamson put on a show, but the Pelicans dropped to a Western Conference-worst 7-30 with a loss to the Timberwolves.
