Pelicans’ Offseason Shocker: Why Experts Say Their Moves Could Backfire Spectacularly
Right before the draft began, the Hawks traded their No. 13 pick to the Pelicans for the No. 23 pick and an unprotected 2026 first-rounder.

Giving up their unprotected pick was an aggressive move, and one that many critics say was ill-advised.
Pelton brought up that this didn’t help their odds of winning the West at all.
In fact, there are only a few teams that have a longer shot of going all the way to the Finals.
