The New Orleans Pelicans are attempting to win with a rotation that of unproven players in 2021

I wanted to build on an idea that I briefly touched on earlier, and that’s the “bargain-bin” free agent shopping that David Griffin and his staff are doing for the New Orleans Pelicans.

It’s my theory that because of the money that the Pelicans are giving to their trade acquisitions of Steven Adams and Eric Bledsoe, along with the max contract they awarded to Brandon Ingram, that the team’s governorship has decided that’s all the spending they’ll allow for this offseason.
