Late last week, the New Orleans Pelicans wrapped up their off-season by officially signing Solomon Hill, E'Twaun Moore, Langston Galloway, Cheick Diallo, Alonzo Gee, Buddy Hield, Terrence Jones, and Tim Frazier. Eight new contracts and just two, Gee and Frazier, are returning members of the roster from last year. With 15 players under contract, it is unlikely we see much movement from Dell Demps in the coming months. The off-season limit is 20 players, but the NBA requires just 15 on opening night.
To an extent, there were a few minor surprises. Alonzo Gee was signed with the remaining cap space meaning Terrence Jones is almost assuredly on a minimum contract.
