Pelicans will start McCollum - Herb - Ingram - Zion - Val.
They don't really have a 6th man. They get one here with Bennedict Mathurin. He provides scoring punch off the bench with Alvarado, Graham, Hayes and Nance Jr.

BPA. Eason. Sure, there’s risk, but so what?

I think this is low enough to draft for fit. This range between 8-14 is basically identical in talent imo.
Pelicans need a PG, but there is no way to draft one here without reaching like crazy.
Sochan would be the ultimate small ball center to run with Zion.

I went Sochan, but I could see Davis or Mathurin, as well. Honestly Sochan might be a bad idea b/c of overlap with Zion and Herb...but...I like him, especially if they decide to trade Zion and I feel like that's somewhat likely.

Only if Sochan could shoot and protect the rim.
I instead went with Griffin. Plenty of guys who can make something happen with the ball in their hands with Zion/Ingram/CJ. An elite shooter around them would supercharge the offense.

if the Pels trade Zion just fold the entire franchise.
