Pelicans Stand Still, Fall Behind | NBA News

The Pelicans are sitting still while the NBA world moves forward — and that’s costing them. With zero roster changes this offseason, they’re the only team in the league to stand pat, and the result? A failing grade. Last season’s 26-56 record was already bad, but with new lottery rules pushing teams to compete and rivals like Dallas, Memphis, and Utah making big moves, New Orleans is now dangerously behind. Their defense is shaky, internal growth from players like Zion and Derik Queen is unlikely to be enough, and they’re no longer benefiting from last year’s injury luck. In a league where standing still means falling behind, the Pelicans’ inaction is a recipe for disaster. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
