Evans was acquired in a sign-and-trade deal in the 2013 offseason.

The Pelicans have been very happy with the play of Evans this season.

He's been having some amazing games. If he can keep it up consistently, he's one of the best in the league.

the fourth NBA player in history to ever average at least 20 points, 5 rebounds and 5 assists in his rookie year, joining Oscar Robertson (1960–61), Michael Jordan (1984-85) and LeBron James (2003–04)

now 5 years later... not even a fraction of the success of those 3. Still hasn't attained the success of his first season and more of a 3rd option than a first.

Oh well

Rookie year he played PG. He hasn't played PG since.
