New Orleans Pelicans

Describing the New Orleans Pelicans as contenders may be generous. With the uncertainty surrounding Zion Williamson’s future with the team, they have to operate with the same urgency as a championship hopeful.

By that logic, this team needs to strengthen its point guard depth. When the 2021-22 regular season ended, they had CJ McCollum manning the position. He’s an excellent player, but a natural-born distributor he is not.

Meanwhile, Devonte’ Graham’s defensive deficiencies leave him best suited for reserve duty. Jose Alvarado had a surprisingly solid rookie season, but with the team making its case for Williamson, they shouldn’t lean on a sophomore too heavily.

Derrick Rose should stabilize this Pelicans squad. He offers a steady veteran hand, as well as elite floor-spacing for Williamson and Ingram’s attack. His fit with this team should contribute to winning basketball in the Big Easy.
