The Pelicans need another wing and it seems likely they will get one very soon. The Solomon Hill injury reinforced this necessity while making re-signing Dante Cunningham paramount.
Quincy Pondexter proved to be the perfect opportunity for them to accomplish this. He had not played an NBA game in over two years and was still on the New Orleans Pelicans’ roster with little known about what he could bring to the table.
The Pelicans decided to move the 28-year-old small forward to a team that needed depth nearly as much as them according to The Verticals Shams Charania.
