The home team were led by the likes of marquee stars- CJ McCollum, Brandon Ingram and Jonas Valanciunas. However, there one particular player, who might have not gotten big numbers on the scoring cards, but gathered praise from each and every fan. None other than, Jose Alvarado. 

What did Jose Alvarado do? He surely did not heave a monster game unlike many of his teammates. But his efforts were seen on either ends of the floor. Managing to register 12 points in just 22 minutes, the kid from Brooklyn gave his all for NOLA. As a result of which, home fans could not keep calm but chant his name on the streets, making the guard super emotional in the post-game interview. 

Big Jose Alvarado chants by Pelicans’ fans 

“I hear it. It’s amazing. Hearing that is just like, man, where I come from and how my story and life went. Hearing them just cheer cause I’m doing good. Or just in general. Man, the city is amazing. … NOLA thanks for embracing a kid from Brooklyn. I’m going to give all I got to this city,” said Pelicans star Jose Alvarado. 

The same cheers have been seen usually in football games, but Alvarado had the impact of bringing the same wave in NBA as well. Not to forget, Alvarado’s elite passes in the dying moments of the game, secured the team’s relatively easy win against San Antonio Spurs. Moreover, his three-pointers also came in intervals where NOLA needed big-time plays to stop the momentum from going into the hands of the away team. 

After this win, Alvarado’s Pelicans will be locking horns against the Los Angeles Clippers in a winner-takes-all contest. Which team will be scheduled to play against the season-best Phoenix Suns as the underdogs? Remains to be seen as the postseason festivity continues with Clippers vs Pelicans showdown on Friday night.
