Buddy Hield stays cold in Vegas while Cheick Diallo looks ahead of schedule. Plus, Alvin Gentry sits down to talk Jrue Holiday.
The New Orleans Pelicans lost their last game of the Las Vegas Summer League to the D-League Select Team, bringing their record to 1-4. Of course, winning in Las Vegas hardly matters. Buddy Hield was once again ice cold, scoring 11 points on dreadful 5-18 shooting and 1-7 behind the arc. On the plus side, he continues to flash far more playmaking than expected with 5 assists and a number of potential assists missed by his teammates.
