When the Pelicans took Kira Lewis with the 13th pick in the 2020 draft it was clear that they liked his long term potential. It didn’t look like there would be a lot of minutes as Lonzo, Bledsoe and Nickeil all looked to be ahead of him at point guard. After a poor run of results that demanded change and Kira stepping up it looks like he has cemented himself as the back up point guard for now. These minutes are useful at the moment but it won’t be long until he is getting more. In fact he is deserving of those minutes now.
Kira Lewis Jr is the future
