The Pelicans traded away key bench players, shutting the door on waiving Jordan Poole—but ironically, it may have made his path to playing time even tougher. With the addition of high-priced scoring guard Bennedict Mathurin, who’s locked in for two years and $16M, Poole now faces an even more crowded rotation alongside Dejounte Murray, Jeremiah Fears, Zion Williamson, and Trey Murphy III. Analysts say Poole’s only shot at minutes might come via injury—and that he’s likely not part of New Orleans’ long-term plans, making his future uncertain as he waits for a chance to rebuild his value before hitting free agency next summer.
