Technially Norris Cole is not a member of the New Orleans Pelicans at the moment. Thanks to a much cooler market than Cole believed he would have, the Pelicans are the only team to have actually offered him a deal according to reports at this time.
What that means is that Cole is almost certainly going to be suiting up for the Pelicans this season and trying to make a contract push to secure a long-term deal with some team after the season.
What exactly that will take remains to be seen. Cole has a reputation as a spark-plug type off the bench who excells at defending and playing hard, though his offensive game is pretty up-and-down.
