Following the 2023 NBA Draft last night, former Bearcats star forward Landers Nolley II agreed to a free agent contract with the New Orleans Pelicans!
Nolley is expected to participate in the NBA Summer League in early July and will have a chance to earn a spot on the Pelicans roster entering next season.
San Antonio Spurs center Victor Wembanyama was selected with the top overall pick and is the overwhelming favorite to win NBA Rookie of the Year.
There were several draft picks that faced Nolley last season including Indiana Pacers forward Jarace Walker and Utah Jazz forward Taylor Hendricks.
