The New Orleans Pelicans will have five picks entering the upcoming NBA Draft and could use them in a number of ways.

David Griffin said as much in a recent interview, giving some hints that the Pelicans are open for business when it comes to their picks:

“The pick assets we have give us incredible flexibility. And because we have a young group where most of them are on rookie-scale (contracts) – and other players we’re very high on, we’ve secured for multiple years at affordable numbers – we’ll be able to be aggressive if the right fit exists for us.
