New Orleans Pelicans: Alexis Ajinca gets taught how to run

Ajinca: Hi. I’ve heard that you are in the business of coaching people to run well. I am in a bind– I recently promised a swarm of sports media members that I would be the starting Center for a New Orleans Pelicans team that has no business giving me that many minutes. The key to making this happening is for me to run better, says the Good Angel on my left shoulder.

Coach: Yes, I’ve been doing this all of my life. Generally, I begin with an assessment of my students’ strengths. What are yours?
