The Ian Clark signing shores up some concerns about the New Orleans Pelicans perimeter shooting heading into the 2017-18 campaign, and it’s safe to say that the team now boasts five NBA-rotation worthy guards.
Unlike the past few seasons, Alvin Gentry now has options, having the ability to surround Anthony Davis and DeMarcus Cousins with multiple combinations that feature either passers, scorers or defenders.
On the flip side, the addition of Clark leaves New Orleans with precious little room to make further moves, both from the standpoint of the salary cap sheet and available roster spots.
