The New Orleans Pelicans will have a dramatically different roster next season but they still have some of the same problems.

They will have new faces in the starting lineup, with three starters moved in trades this offseason.

It’s going to be a lot for new coach Willie Green to work through, but a younger, more athletic roster also offers some exciting possibilities around Zion Williamson.

Even though there have been some big changes to the roster, some old weaknesses still remain, and the Pelicans are going to have to improve them if they want to make the leap into the playoffs in the Western Conference.
