Oscar Gonzalez+FollowDid the Pels Fumble the Newell-Queen Trade?Watching the summer league, it’s hard not to feel the sting from the Derik Queen-Asa Newell swap. Queen’s numbers look okay on paper, but the turnovers and shaky defense are tough to watch. Meanwhile, Newell’s looking like a steal for the Hawks—knocking down threes, guarding every position, and just playing with way more poise. That 2026 unprotected pick swap could haunt us for years if Newell keeps this up. Is this the worst trade in recent Pels history? #Sports #Basketball #Pelicans00Share
Oscar Gonzalez+FollowCJ McCollum Bids NOLA a Classy FarewellBig news in the Big Easy—CJ McCollum, aka 'Unc,' is officially a Wizard after the Pelicans shipped him and Olynyk to DC for Poole and Bey.

Ryan Lopez+FollowPelicans Eyeing Tre Johnson, Not Ace?So it turns out all that buzz about the Pels trading up for Ace Bailey might’ve been smoke! According to Marc Stein, New Orleans isn’t as locked in on Bailey as we thought. Instead, there’s real chatter about Tre Johnson—the Texas freshman sniper who lit it up from deep last season. With his elite shooting and shot creation, he could be the perfect fit next to Zion and CJ. Do you think Tre is the missing piece, or should the Pels swing bigger? #Pelicans #NBADraft #TreJohnson #Sports #Basketball10Share
summersivan+FollowPelicans Eye Sixers’ No. 3 Pick—Blockbuster Brewing?Word is, the Pels are making a serious push for Philly’s No. 3 pick in this year’s draft. With the Sixers’ ‘Big Fella’ Embiid and PG13 both coming off rough seasons, Philly might be open to dealing. New Orleans, now led by front office legend Joe Dumars, wants to move up from No. 7—maybe to snag a top-tier talent before the drop-off. Could this be the start of a new West-East rivalry? #NBADraft #Pelicans #Sixers #Sports #Basketball63Share
summersivan+FollowCould DG Light Up the Big Easy?Rumors are heating up around Darius Garland’s future, and now the Pels are in the mix!

guerrajohn+FollowCan Big Hunt Fix Pelicans’ Paint Woes?Jayhawk fans, what do you think about Hunter Dickinson getting a pre-draft workout with the Pelicans? Despite his monster stats and All-American honors, Big Hunt didn’t crack ESPN’s top 100 or get a combine invite. Now, with New Orleans desperate for rim protection and rebounding after a rough season, could Dickinson be the answer? Or is this just a courtesy look? Let’s hear your takes on whether he’s NBA-ready or still a college legend. #HunterDickinson #Pelicans #NBADraft #Sports00Share
Oscar Gonzalez+FollowIs Joe D Making the Right Call in NOLA?Pistons legend Joe Dumars is back in the front office, this time running the show for the Pelicans. But his first big move—or lack thereof—has fans buzzing. Instead of shaking things up after a rough season, Dumars is sticking with Zion, CJ, and Coach Willie Green.

Curious to hear what y’all think about Joe D’s approach! #Pelicans #JoeDumars #NBAForum #Sports10Share

Susan Reeves+FollowIs CJ’s Time Up in NOLA Already?Looks like CJ McCollum, the former Rip City sharpshooter, might have played his last game for the Pelicans. After a tough, injury-riddled season, New Orleans is eyeing a rebuild around its young core. With Ingram already gone, CJ—once Dame’s running mate and a top-10 Blazer—is now their best trade chip. Do you think the Pels should move on, or does CJ still have more to give in NOLA? Where would you like to see him land next? #CJMcCollum #Pelicans #RipCity #NBARumors #TradeTalk #Sports90Share
Theresa Boyd+FollowDid LeBron's Feud End Griffin's Run?So, Pelicans GM David Griffin is out after a rough season and a 21-61 record. Remember his beef with LeBron back in the day? Seems like LeBron got the last laugh after all. 🤔 With LeBron leading the Lakers to success, Griffin couldn’t replicate the magic in New Orleans. Maybe time for a fresh start for the Pelicans! 🏀 NBA #Pelicans #LeBronJames #Sports50Share
