Pelicans sign McCollum to extension, set roster at 20 players ahead of training camp

There was a whirlwind of activity on the Saturday before media day and the start of training camp by the New Orleans Pelicans.

CJ McCollum agreed to a two-year, $64 million extension with the Pelicans, per ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski.

McCollum is now under contract for the next four years and a total of $133 million.

While an average of $32 million a year for McCollum in his age 33 and 34 seasons may be worrisome at first glance, realize that it's far below what others will be earning in three years.

In my opinion, the value is good.
