The New Orleans Pelicans were wise not to extend Josh Hart or Lonzo Ball.
The New Orleans Pelicans failed to agree to rookie extensions with Lonzo Ball and Josh Hart yesterday, the final day to do so.
As a flurry of signings were announced via Twitter, Pels’ fans panicked that guys like Luke Kennard were getting locked into long term deals while New Orleans allowed Hart and Ball to enter their contract seasons.
