New Orleans Pelicans 2020 NBA Draft Grades (Photo by Sarah Stier/Getty Images)
The New Orleans Pelicans will have five picks entering the 2021 NBA Draft and could use them in a number of ways.
Right now, the Pels would have the 10th, 35th, 40th, 41st and 53rd pick in the NBA Draft, but it is very unlikely that that they would use them all, as they won’t have the roster space for five additional players even if they could find ones that they liked.
I would guess the Pelicans will look to trade from their stockpile of second-round picks to move up in the draft, but is more the first round pick that concerns me.
