It was just five years ago that Quincy Pondexter‘s NBA journey began after four strong years at the University of Washington. His dream was realized with the 26th pick in the draft as the Oklahoma City Thunder decided to draft Pondexter. While it seemed Pondexter would be headed to OKC, that changed when draft day trade sent him to New Orleans to start his NBA journey.
New Orleans was a team strong with veteran talent. From Chris Paul to David West, the team had plenty of potential to make a run in the postseason.
