John Butler edges out Deividas Sirvydis for Pelicans two-way contract in fan poll

New Orleans Pelicans fans have voted and the results are in. Excluding E.J. Liddell, John Butler is the most popular choice for the team’s available two-way contract. (Dereon Seabron agreed to the other one shortly after the conclusion of the 2022 NBA draft.)

Through the first four games of summer league, John Butler had nine points in about 34 minutes of play to his name. He then exploded for 25 points on 9 for 9 shooting — including a perfect 6 for 6 from 3-point territory— in the final exhibition contest.
