NEW ORLEANS – New Orleans Pelicans coach Monty Williams continued to express appreciation for the franchise’s fans at the end of the season despite hearing boos during introductions at the two home playoff games. But when the boos and heckling were a concern in the regular season, Williams actually told his wife, Ingrid, that it was best that she and their five children stay home.
“It’s weird because I’ve never seen that done in a rebuild,” Williams told Yahoo Sports after a season-ending 109-98 loss to the Golden State Warriors in Game 4 of a first-round series on Saturday night.
