The New Orleans Pelicans won the sweepstakes for Australian big man Will Magnay

Over the holiday, the New Orleans Pelicans made a small move to fill out their roster. As announced by ESPN, the organization is officially signing Australian big man Will Magnay from the NBL to a two-year, two-way contract.

My instant reaction to this move was that I liked it because it showed that David Griffin’s front office is continuing to explore leagues across the globe for talent that’ll help improve this team, after signing Nicolo Melli from Europe the last offseason.
