The New Orleans Pelicans have a ton of picks, a great core of young players, and a nice group of complementary veterans, but the team has the potential to get even tougher if they decide to use their chips on a superstar like Bradley Beal.
Long rumored to be unhappy with the Washington Wizards even after signing a short-term extension to stay in the nation’s capital last summer, Beal is certainly to be a hot target during the league’s next transaction window.
While current title-contending heavyweights like the Los Angeles Lakers, Philadelphia 76ers and Denver Nuggets could all have interest in Beal, the New Orleans Pelicans have one of the best pools of assets in the league.
