Bet on a lot of Louisianians paying close attention to all the action.
Chris Paul spent six seasons with the New Orleans franchise; Jrue Holiday, seven. They both rank in the top 4 of an assortment of categories when examining this team’s career leaderboard: games, minutes, field goals, free throws, assists, steals and points.
