New Orleans Pelicans’ coach Stan Van Gundy has an up and down history of player development.
When the New Orleans Pelicans hired Stan Van Gundy they knew they were getting a respected teacher of the game, a guy who could help develop the immense talent on their roster.
With Brandon Ingram, Zion Williamson and Lonzo Ball, the Pelicans have some of the top under-25 players in the league, who should be able to get even better under Stan Van Gundy’s tutelage.
