This is over $50MM tied up in one position. Not trying to rain on our parade but this is curious.
We becoming the Duke of the NBA with Zion, Ingram, Okafor & now Redick!! Then our UCLA backcourt of Jrue & Lonzo!
We stay healthy, I’m predicting 6th man of the year, JJ REDICK
We ought to see coach K at a lot of games & practices when he has the time which isn’t much lol
Plus they might still resign Elfrid as backup point which I wouldnt mind.
So I see Moore and Jackson as expendable now. Plus theyve got that euro dude they drafted in the 2nd round who might be promising as a 2/3.
Free agent Ricky Rubio has agreed three-year, $51 million deal with the Phoenix Suns, league sources tell @TheAthleticNBA @Stadium.

Yes if we could move Moore to make room for two lower tier players at stretch 4/5 & either a point or a 3, we would be golden.
I think we could be good with Hart and/or Redick playing as our 3rd guard though. Ball is 6’6” so he could guard the 3, with Jrue on the point, & Redick on the 2 in games. It’s not ideal, but could work for some minutes. Then have a Redick, Hart, and either Jackson or NAW at the point for your second team. I’m hoping NAW looks good as a lead guard so he can get some minutes.
Has Dedmon made it official with the Kings yet?? We need to call that dude and pay him a little more lol.
JaMychal Green would be a nice addition at the 4 spot. I rather some size that could start with Zion some games. Frank Kaminsky or Mike Muscala might be a decent option for a 1 year deal.
Pelicans squad next season (as of right this second)
PG: Lonzo/Hart/NAW
SG: Jrue/JJ Redick/Moore
SF: Ingram/Kenrich
PF: Zion/Melli/Wood
C: Okafor/Hayes
Damn Brooklyn got Garrett Temple as well. Sneaky move for them to get the LSU Tiger. He can play 1-3 in the lineup.
Brooklyn, the Jazz, & the Pacers making some good moves.
Free agent F Rodney Hood has agreed to a two-year, $16M deal to return to the Portland Trail Blazers, CAA agents Ty Sullivan and Austin Brown tell ESPN. Deal includes a player option.

Unless LA gets Kawhi, Utah are the best team in the West next season.
I listed Hart at the 1 basically just to try and keep from loading up one position too heavily. In reality, these positions are more guidelines than fact, because on any given play Jrue could be at the one, Ingram could be at the 4, Zion could be at the 5, etc etc.
I know Moore is very possibly on the way out. That's why I specified that the list was based on the squad ''right this second''. As of this second, Moore is still a Pelican.
Griff and Langdon signed two shooters. Gotta bet the next move will be more defensive minded.

You have Kenrich backing up the 3 over a guy that started for our playoff team that swept the Blazers in that spot? If we don’t sign a 3, a guard will be in that spot IMO. I think Hart & Moore will play as our 3rd guard over Kenrich. With Hart being our biggest guard besides Lonzo height wise, I think he’s got that spot locked up especially with JJ signing. I’m not sure Kenrich even makes the team, especially not over Frank Jackson.
One thing for sure...the West is going to be a total bloodbath of a fight next season. Utah. Portland. Denver. GS. Clippers. If Lakers steal Kawhi, they still have zero depth and I don't know very much about basketball. AD and Lebron will have to play 45 minutes a night and we all know how well AD holds up.
Lol @ nobody mentioning Cousins at all in this free agency by the way. No teams seem to be hunting him, there's no bidding war, etc etc. Just mass apathy about him.
James Dolan trending for wrong reasons.
Derrick Favors has to be dumped by Utah now and his contract would fit into our current cap space without needing to even make another move. Look at that as a possibility too.
I hope Horford has a really dry market. We move Moore, Kenrich, & Bertans, we might make it close to get him for a decent 2 year deal.
I know highly unlikely, but that would be so sick!! Make it happen Loom, I mean Griffin!! ����
No news in the last 10min??
Favors getting waived? Pels have just enough room for him https://t.co/f9Z99GLrIu

The poor Knicks?!! Will they ever be relevant again? Every year it seems they gonna get a couple big time free agents and they get nada.
The NBA should force Dolan out like the did they dude at the Clippers.
Jazz will probably have to renounce to Favors' option in order to make room for Bogdanovic. So, if Moore is moved elsewhere, Horford, Favors and Adams are still possibilities.
EDIT: I don't want any part of Cousins on the Pelicans. I hope he ends on the Knicks or Lakers.
What? Favors was dumped?
I’d take him in a heart beat on a 2 year year deal.
Make it happen Griffin & Langdon
Are the Lakers gonna have $10m to throw at him? Only if they miss out on a big name FA. They could still conceivably get Kawhi, D-Lo, or even Horford, actually.
If I'm LA, I'd rather throw $15m at Randle and try to bring him back than pay Cousins. He's garbage at this point. Also, is he a stretch 5 now? He shot 27.4% from three last season. He has no lift at all in his legs anymore.
