The New Orleans Pelicans would have either the 10th or 11th pick in the 2021 NBA Draft if it were held today, though that could change depending on how they finish out the season.
The Pels are still just two games behind the Warriors for the last play-in spot, so could overcome them and end up in the playoffs if every single thing broke their way.
That’s not likely to happen, especially with the injuries they are facing, so it is not too soon to consider who the Pels might draft if they end up in the lottery again.
