A native of Bellingham, Wash., Daulton Hommes played college basketball in San Diego at Point Loma Nazarene University, not exactly a hotbed for NBA prospects as a Division II program. Born on the Fourth of July in 1996, the 25-year-old spent time in the G League and playing professionally in Italy prior to signing a two-way contract with New Orleans this summer. Hommes was a member of the Pelicans’ unbeaten summer league squad, but is now waiting to get back on the court, sidelined by a right fibular stress fracture.
