Dante Cunningham has continued to reinvent himself for this New Orleans Pelicans team. Signed three seasons ago, Cunningham has been able carve out the role of swiss army knife for the Pelicans. Asked to play a multitude of different positions, Cunningham has proven to be a reliable option at the 3, the 4 and on rare occasions the 5.
Entering this season, Cunningham faces stiff competition for rotation minutes, as the Pelicans paid big money to Solomon Hill, who figures to be the primary option at small forward. The two players are similar in their ability to play both the 3 and the 4.
