Yesterday afternoon Scott Kushner of the New Orleans Advocate asked an interesting question on Twitter. Where does Tyreke Evans stand in the history of the New Orleans Pelicans? The results as of this writing are pretty surprising to me, just 26% of respondents put Tyreke Evans in the top ten in franchise history. Really? Is there some wealth of Pelicans (and previously Hornets) history I’m missing?
Evans ranks just outside the top ten in franchise history (since arriving in New Orleans) in minutes and games played with 5,957 minutes played over the course of 202 games.
