The New Orleans Pelicans are betting on success

Looking over their shoulders at a 30-win 2015-16 campaign, the New Orleans Pelicans took matters into their own hands this July. Already blessed with a franchise superstar in Anthony Davis and his partner in crime Jrue Holiday for at least one more season, the team opted to spend their money acquiring role players and rotation pieces to fill out what figures to be a deeper and more versatile roster. But while the names may not have been big, the bucks were. With improvement clearly in mind, the Pelicans went out and spent roughly $110 million this summer.
