The Pelicans’ roster will look slightly different this year as they will be without Lonzo Ball, who was turning the corner in the NBA as a starting point guard, Steven Adams, the reliable bruiser, and veteran Eric Bledsoe. New Orleans has a future star in the making in Trey Murphy III. He likely won’t start immediately, but he should see his fair share of floor time this year as a rookie. His ability to shoot from beyond the arc spread the floor, and cut without the ball (courtesy of playing at Virginia) will pair him perfectly with Zion in the future. For now, the New Orleans Pelicans will likely start a combination of Zion Williamson, Brandon Ingram, Devonte Graham, Nickeil Alexander-Walker, and Jonas Valanciunas.
