The Ringer’s Kevin O’Connor looks here at if the New Orleans Pelicans did enough over the summer to please their superstar as he enters the first year of a contract extension. With to-the-point write-ups on every acquired player and video collections of some of the more interesting players, O’Connor does a great job analyzing how and why the collection of guys might work together to help the Pelicans improve.
Notable statistics include: the Pelicans were third worst in corner three-point percentage and allowed the highest catch-and-shoot three-point percentage on defense. Solomon Hill shot 39.4% from the corners in Indiana last season.
