New Orleans Pelicans: Jaxson Hayes should play in the G-League bubble

The New Orleans Pelicans played their best game of the season against the Phoenix Suns while Jaxson Hayes sat disinterested at the end of the bench.

After starting the game before with Steven Adams out, Hayes lost his spot in the rotation (at least for now) to Willie Hernangomez after the 26-year-old Spaniard played well against the Kings.

Jaxson Hayes has not played well this season outside of a few minutes here and there and only occasionally flashes what David Griffin must have seen when he inexplicably took him 8th in a loaded draft.
