Jeff Adrien has the inside track to land one of the Pelicans open roster spots

Jeff Adrien has bounced around the NBA for years. Upon finishing his career at the University of Connecticut, he wasn't sure he'd even get that opportunity. Adrien wasn't selected in the 2009 NBA draft so he left for Europe to play in the Spanish league. For the next 6 years, he bounced around not only within the NBA but the entire continent. In addition to playing in Spain, he also spent time in Italy and China.

Adrien has had moments with five different NBA teams before arriving in New Orleans on a non-guaranteed deal.
