2023 NBA Draft: New Orleans Pelicans draft Jordan Hawkins in 1st Round
The New Orleans Pelicans selected UConn Huskies guard Jordan Hawkins with the 14th overall pick in the 2023 NBA draft. https://www.nba.com/pelicans/news/pelicans-add-top-shooter-jordan-hawkins-with-no-14-pick
A tall guard off the bench to help CJ who is no point guard. Highly questionable. No Cam Whitmore who fell into your lap? You want to become more of a three team then you do this nonsense. If you want to win how about picking players with fundamentals! Like set screens! Like rebound! Like have a pick and roll on & off-ball skills, defend & run the floor, and lord knows if you can shoot thats a plus for the PELS. This pick is trying to makeup for Buddy Hield years ago.
Who is responsible? I thought the goals were to become a 'winner' and respect the legacy of The Great Tom Benson. SMH the disrespect has me flabbergasted. Jobs are on the line this year for everyone! Griffin, Green, Zion.. losing to the Thunder deserves firing! Going from 1st in the West to 12th deserves firing!
Lastly, get this team a new stadium if we are FOR REAL about keeping them in New Orleans. Otherwise, do us all a favor and sell them.

A mf who can shoot the ball is welcome on this team
