Amidst the swirling free agency drama surrounding Kevin Durant and Dwyane Wade, the Pelicans quietly made another under-the-radar acquisition in Langston Galloway. Now I know what you are thinking. Is this dude a basketball player, or a Shakespearean era poet who crafts sonnets in iambic pentameter? He sounds like someone a high school English teacher would make you write a report on. But fret not, this Baton Rouge native is indeed a basketball player. And a pretty intriguing one at that!
The 6’2″ combo guard’s story mimics something out of 2K15. Going undrafted, Galloway was the first ever call up from the New York Knicks D-League affiliate, the Westchester Knicks.
