Alright, so I wanted to catch up on the New Orleans Pelicans versus Sacramento Kings game. Missed watching it live, you know how it is sometimes. But I definitely wanted to see how the players did, figure out who showed up and who didn’t.
First thing I did was just grab my phone. Usually, I start with a quick search, something straightforward like “Pelicans Kings player stats” or “NBA box score Pelicans Kings”. That usually gets me going in the right direction.
I have a couple of sports apps I rely on, ESPN and the official NBA app are usually pretty solid. So, I opened one of them up. Sometimes the homepage has the score right there, especially if it was a recent game. If not, I just navigate to the ‘Scores’ or ‘NBA’ section.
Finding the Game Details
Once I found the game listing, I tapped on it. What I’m looking for is the box score. That’s the gold mine for player stats. It breaks everything down.
- Points
- Rebounds
- Assists
- Steals
- Blocks
- Minutes Played
- Shooting percentages (like FG%, 3P%, FT%)
I scrolled through the Pelicans’ stats first. Always curious about guys like Zion Williamson or Brandon Ingram, see how many points they dropped, how efficient they were. Then I flipped over to the Kings’ side. Needed to check on De’Aaron Fox and Domantas Sabonis, see what kind of numbers they put up.
The app laid it out pretty clearly, team by team, player by player. It showed the starters and the guys who came off the bench. It’s pretty standard stuff, but exactly what I needed.
Wrapping Up
It wasn’t too hard to find this time. Most major sports sites or apps get these box scores up pretty quickly after a game finishes. Just took a few taps and swipes. Got the info I was looking for – saw who had a big night and who struggled a bit. Satisfied my curiosity for sure. Now I feel like I have a good picture of how that matchup went down, player by player.
