Chasing Big

Related Topics: Memphis Grizzlies, The Sheer

The Pelicans have put together perhaps the most productive 3 big rotation the league has seen in a long time. The sheer versatility of the trio poses an interesting challenge for opposing defenses who simply are not equipped to handle all three. When all three have been healthy that has certainly been the case, with the three combining for 64.2 points, 32.4 rebounds, and 9.1 assists per game. For reference, the Memphis Grizzlies as a team only pull down 39.5 boards per contest. Make no mistake about it – the Pelicans have something special brewing with this group.The coaches have touted as such, frequently point to the ability of all three to play off each other in two man combos and perhaps even all at once.
