Oscar Gonzalez+FollowPelicans Demand Bane-Level Haul for MurphyWith the trade deadline looming, the Pels are making headlines by setting a Desmond Bane-type price for Trey Murphy III. New Orleans wants a king’s ransom—think four firsts and a swap—just to consider moving their sharpshooting star. The Lakers and Dubs are circling, but that sticker shock might keep Murphy in the Big Easy. Is this a smart play or just wishful thinking from the front office? Let’s hear your takes, squad! #Sports #Basketball #Pelicans00Share
Brian Gaines+FollowPelicans vs Spurs: Poole Benched, Trade LoomsLooks like the Jordan Poole experiment in NOLA is fizzling out fast. After being a healthy scratch in the Pelicans’ win over the Spurs, it’s clear the front office is shopping him before the deadline. Poole just hasn’t clicked with Zion and the young core, and his contract is a tough pill to swallow. Do you think anyone bites, or is this the end of the line for Poole in the Big Easy? #Sports #Basketball #Pelicans00Share
Theresa Boyd+FollowPelicans Facing Poole Dilemma Like Warriors DidPels fans, are we seeing déjà vu with Jordan Poole? After the Dubs and Wizards moved on, it looks like New Orleans is realizing why Poole’s contract is such a gamble. He can go off for 20+ or disappear completely, and his defense isn’t helping. With rook Jeremiah Fears getting more run, it’s clear Poole’s role is shrinking. Will the Pels find a trade partner before the deadline, or are we stuck with this contract? #Sports #Basketball #Pelicans00Share
Brian Gaines+FollowPelicans Eye Risacher in Hawks Trade DramaWord is swirling that the Pels might swoop in for Zaccharie Risacher, the French phenom and former #1 pick, as the Hawks reportedly shop him around. While Big Z hasn’t lived up to his draft hype yet, he’s just 20 and oozes three-and-D potential. Could New Orleans be the perfect spot for him to unlock his game? With the Hawks possibly chasing a star like AD, the Pels have the assets to get creative. Would you take a flyer on Risacher? #Sports #Basketball #Pelicans00Share
summersivan+FollowPelicans' Looney Benched: Warriors Reunion?Tough times for Big Kev! Since leaving Dub Nation, Kevon Looney’s stint with the Pelicans has been rough—11 straight DNPs and rookie Derik Queen taking his spot. With the Pels likely to decline his $8M option, trade rumors are swirling. Could the Warriors bring the 3x champ back for a reunion if he hits free agency? Either way, the Bay’s decision to move on looks smarter by the day. #Sports #Basketball #Pelicans00Share
Amy Tanner+FollowPelicans’ Sixth Man Shakeup: Zion & Queen ShinePels fans, what do you think of Coach Borrego’s bold move bringing Zion off the bench? King Z is thriving as the sixth man, dropping 24 and 29 in back-to-back games, and the squad’s on a four-game heater. Meanwhile, rookie Derik Queen is making noise in the starting five—Zion himself called him “special.” No beef here, just a winning combo. Are we witnessing a new era for the Pels? #Sports #Basketball #Pelicans00Share
summersivan+FollowPelicans Demand Bane-Level Haul for TreyPelicans fans, what do you think of the front office holding out for a Desmond Bane-type package for Trey Murphy III? With the team’s struggles and Zion’s on-and-off presence, it’s no surprise they’re valuing their young core highly. Western rivals like the Warriors and Lakers are sniffing around, but it sounds like Murphy and Herb are staying put unless someone pays up big. Is this the right move for the Pels’ rebuild? #Sports #Basketball #Pelicans00Share
StarlitSavanna+FollowZion storms back, Bulls collapse againZion’s back and instantly puts the Pelicans on his shoulders—eight of the last 11 points in the half, and you could feel the energy shift! Trey Murphy III is straight-up balling, and the rookies are stepping up big time. Meanwhile, the Bulls can’t buy a bucket from deep—Coby White goes ice-cold, and the home crowd’s left groaning through another meltdown. How much longer can Chicago fans take this pain before something changes? #Sports #Basketball #Pelicans00Share
James Allen+FollowDerik Queen Makes History: 33-10-10, 4 BLK on 73% ShootingWhat a coming-out party. Derik Queen put up a 33 PTS, 10 AST, 10 REB triple-double on 11-of-15 FG — and added 4 BLOCKS — in the Pelicans’ thriller vs. the Spurs. Queen is the first rookie center in NBA history to record a 30-point triple-double; with the 4 blocks, it’s a rookie stat line we’ve never seen. San Antonio still stole it late behind Dylan Harper, but Queen’s efficiency and two-way pop were the story. #NBA #DerikQueen #Pelicans #RookieWatch #TripleDouble 10Share
summersivan+FollowWhat's Really Cursing the Pelicans?Pels fans, is it just Zion’s injuries or is there something deeper haunting New Orleans? Austin Rivers says it’s not just Big Z’s health woes—he blames the city’s ‘voodoo’ for the team’s endless bad luck. Even with legit talent like Ingram, CJ, and Valanciunas, the squad can’t catch a break. Is it time to believe in the curse, or is this just another rebuild gone wrong? #Sports #Basketball #Pelicans00Share
