Okafor Signs With Pelicans

Jahlil Okafor has struggled to find a home in the NBA but the former Duke big man has signed with New Orleans.

It’s apparently a two year deal and the Pelicans have an option for the second year. He’ll be on a team with Anthony Davis, Julius Randle and fellow former Blue Devil Frank Jackson.

Bonus: he may be teammates with former UConn big man Emeka Okafor, meaning that the Pelicans would be the first NBA team to have two Okafors.
