What exactly is the Pelicans' plan for 2026-27?

The Pelicans went 26-56 last season, then made no major moves this offseason aside from hiring head coach Jamahl Mosley. They don't seem willing to trade Trey Murphy or Herb Jones. So what exactly is the plan?

Zion Williamson played in 62 games, so it's not like the reason New Orleans was bad was because of his health. Can he and Derik Queen play at the same time? What about Jeremiah Fears and Jordan Poole? I haven't even mentioned Dejounte Murray or Yves Missi yet.

Big test tonight against the Mavs- we’ll see if last night’s win carries any momentum.

Dallas has only 2 wins themselves, and they’ve also had a relatively lighter schedule to start the season than the Pelicans.

Huge win for the Pels last night. Outlasting the Hornets in the final minutes showed that New Orleans resilience.

The Hornets gave it up late, but the bench is really stepping up- 62 points combined.

So far, the Pelicans are actually worse off with Zion on the court. Check out these numbers from Cleaning the Glass.

Per Cleaning the Glass, early numbers are saying the Pelicans are +23.5 points per 100 possessions BETTER when Zion is OFF the court this season. 

Small sample size, sure - but that's the 95th percentile the wrong way.. The offense just looks freer without him.

Over/Under Wins Totals For All 30 Teams; Pelicans' Number Too Low

The 2025-26 NBA season is here, and not a minute too soon. It's going to be an interesting year for the New Orleans Pelicans, who have an uphill battle in the very tough Western Conference.

I love taking a look at the projected over/under wins totals for all 30 teams, and was a little surprised by the Pelicans' number. Here's the full list.

Does the Saints struggling make you more or less excited for Pelicans season?

The New Orleans Saints are now 0-2, putting the state of New Orleans sports in the gutter. 

Does that make you more or less excited for the New Orleans Pelicans season? It could be fun to watch something else, but there is still a chance that they struggle again too which would only make it worse.
