UNCERTAINTY: New Orleans Pelicans Face TOUGH Point Guard Decision—Should Jeremiah Fears Start?

New Orleans Pelicans face a crossroads as uncertainty swirls around the point guard position. Could the futures of Dejounte Murray and rising star Jeremiah Fears determine the team's playoff hopes? Jake Madison breaks down the complex decisions facing the Pelicans, from rookie development to trade rumors involving Ja Morant and Emmanuel Quickley.   Key topics include potential upgrades at point guard, Jamal Mosley’s system impacts, and how ball-handling by committee—or a splashy trade—could reshape the Pelicans’ identity. With Zion Williamson and Trey Murphy III’s roles set, questions remain about shooting, defense, and whether the Pelicans should pursue a full-scale roster revamp or stay the course. Is a bold move or steady growth the key to playoff success for New Orleans?   Follow & Subscribe on all Podcast platforms 🎧 https://lockedonpodcasts.com/podcasts/locked-on-pelicans/   Locked On NBA League-Wide: Every Team, Fantasy, Draft, WNBA & More 🎧 https://lockedonpodcasts.com/leagues/nba #NewOrleansPelicans #ZionWilliamson #NBA #pelicans     Everydayer Club If you never miss an episode, it’s time to make it official.
