Throughout the offseason the entire New Orleans Pelicans franchise has been clear about what the plan for improvement is going forward. In just about every interview a player, coach or front office member gives the term continuity seems to pop up and the team’s moves have pointed towards that as well with every major rotation player set to be back next season.
But as any good team knows, assuming that a roster is good enough is never the way to go about things, meaning New Orleans should consistently be looking for ways to build better depth. With the release of Toney Douglas from his non-guaranteed deal earlier this month, the Pelicans are well positioned to do just that with a roster spot to use on a player that would do that.
