Valanciunas registered 13 points (6-12 FG, 1-1 3Pt), 11 rebounds, one assist and one block across 23 minutes during Friday's 111-95 loss to the Clippers.
Valanciunas registered his second double-double in his last three games. He also tied with Jordan Hawkins as the leading scorer for the Pelicans in a game during which Zion Williamson left in the second half with a right leg contusion. Valanciunas is averaging 14.7 points and 9.7 rebounds this season, but he hasn't played 30-plus minutes since Dec. 26 as he's split time in the frontcourt with Larry Nance.
