It may not come as a surprise to New Orleans Pelicans fans, but Omer Asik is still on the NBA Trade Block.
“Omer Asik, the rim-protecting big man who has not been nearly as impactful in the Big Easy as he was in Chicago, is very much available a league source has told CSNNE.com.”
New Orleans has used Asik sparingly this year, only playing him for 17.5 minutes per contest.
While Asik’s rebounding and defense have continued to be strong, his offensive inefficiencies make it tough to play him on a squad that needs offensive output.
