The New Orleans Pelicans haven't had the ideal start to the 2025 summer league. New Orleans is 0-2, losing to both the Lakers and Timberwolves. During these losses, rookie Jeremiah Fears has shown some promise, but also that he has a ton of work to do. However, New Orleans' depth at point guard will give Fears time to work on his flaws during his rookie season.
In just two Summer League games, the Oklahoma guard has flashed brilliance with 29 points, four rebounds, and two assists, but it hasn’t come easily. He's shooting an awful 9-for-32 (28%) from the field and has already racked up 10 turnovers.
