Pelicans' E'Twaun Moore struggles from the field in loss to Memphis

New Orleans Pelicans guard/forward E'Twaun Moore finished with 16 points on only 5-of-13 shooting (including 2-of-7 from downtown), adding 4 rebounds, 4 assists, 1 steal and 1 block in 34.7 minutes of action in Wednesday's loss to the Memphis Grizzlies.
