The New Orleans Pelicans are in the process of adding Darius Morris, a 27-year-old journeyman guard, on a partially guaranteed two-year contract.

While Morris, who has spent time with five different NBA organizations, two G League teams and last year with Guangdong Southern in China, could conceivable win one of the available spots in the 2018-19 regular season rotation or the second of the Pelicans two-way contracts, it’s more important to note that the Pelicans have reached their 20-man offseason roster limit with today’s announced signing — at least for the time being — and that they’re likely expecting to start the regular season with some combination of their existing contracts after having doled out so many small guarantees.
