The 2016 NBA Draft is mere hours away. Here is a look at our big board for the New Orleans Pelicans. Team needs were taken into account, more for some folks than others. Who should join Anthony Davis? The top six on our board should be very familiar to Pelican fans; Ben Simmons, Brandon Ingram, Buddy Hield, Jamal Murray, Kris Dunn, and Dragan Bender. After those six, things start to get kind of weird.
Denzel Valentine has long been a favorite of the blog and ranks 7th thanks to widespread support and a strong showing in the community big board.
