Redden Incoming?

I’m told potential Pelicans front office addition Trent Redden is in New Orleans this week.

It doesn’t mean his hire is certain.

David Griffin is holding a large-scale meeting with the team’s incumbent staff later this week, which should help sort out who is in/who is out.

Can confirm that Trent Redden is in New Orleans right now. Met with Griffin already.

Redden is currently the No. 3 shot caller in L.A. w/ the Clippers. Could potentially be the new Pelicans GM if all goes well.

Griffin will continue to assemble his team in the coming weeks.

A few months ago, David Griffin said this about Trent Redden: "He’s going to be a tremendous general manager in this league someday." https://t.co/kCksBzH5xb

Foundation is being laid.

I can dig it

I know nothing about the guy but if you give Griffin the job you gotta let him bring in all the guys he wants. Let him actually lay a foundation for the team.

Exciting news all around... when is the last time this franchise had a top tier front office seriously? Do we go all the way back to when Bob Bass was GM of the Hornets?

David Griffin won a championship and this guy helped to build last seasons Clippers team, who are in the playoffs. This front office is coming together.
