Pelicans add Warriors’ Assistant GM to shortlist of potential GM options

When former New Orleans Pelicans’ General Manager Dell Demps got fired last month, speculation started almost immediately about who Gayle Benson and the rest of the Front Office brass might target as his replacement. A competent and forward-thinking General Manager is pivotal in the success of a team, so finding the right person for the position is no small undertaking.

Typically, you want a GM with a pedigree of building a championship contender, so looking at a team like, say, the Golden State Warriors could prove to be wise for the New Orleans Pelicans. And reportedly, this is exactly what they’re doing as the team is rumored to interview Warriors’ Assistant GM Larry Harris for their job opening.
