The New Orleans Pelicans Wing and a Prayer series continues with Jared Dudley, a small forward veteran with plenty of experience in Alvin Gentry’s system.
With the New Orleans Pelicans’ recent hire of Danny Ferry as a “special advisor,” many fans feel renewed hope in the team’s ability to make bold trades and attract marquee free agents. Suddenly guys like Kent Bazemore or Evan Fournier feel like they’re on the table. Dream scenarios like trading for Jimmy Butler seem less far-fetched than they did just a few days ago. Amidst all of this high-flying speculation, the Pelicans should take a strong look at signing Jared Dudley at the small forward position.
