The New Orleans Pelicans need a boost from J.J. Redick.
The New Orleans Pelicans came into the 2020-21 season with a few question marks but J.J. Redick was not supposed to be one of them.
It is way too early to panic and Redick has earned some trust and patience, but right now the Pelicans’ bench is struggling, in large part because Redick is struggling.
We knew coming into the season that Nicolo Melli and Jaxson Hayes were potential weak spots in the rotation and so far they have been, which is why it is even more important that Redick hit shots.
