However, New Orleans found a rhythm early, led by CJ McCollum, who knocked down five 3-pointers in the first quarter alone. Utah has been vulnerable defensively on the perimeter this season, allowing opponents to take 40.7 percent of their overall shot attempts from deep, tied for the third-highest frequency in the league.

CJ McCollum scored six of his 45 points in overtime and the host New Orleans Pelicans set a franchise record by overcoming a 25-point deficit in defeating the Utah Jazz 123-119 Monday night.

As a potential record-breaking winter storm was bearing down on New Orleans, the Pelicans stormed back to beat the Jazz.
