Anthony Davis

The Pelicans got off to a terrible start to the season, and injuries certainly didn’t help. But to their credit, they are only 4 games back of the final playoff spot in the East. However, there are 3 teams between them and that 8th spot. If they have any shot at reaching there, Anthony Davis [...]

Most NBA players don’t sweat it if they’re not named as an All-Star starter. Anthony Davis may be among the select few who strongly lament their fan-vote slight.

The New Orleans Pelicans are not actively shopping free-agent-to-be Ryan Anderson. And the team’s head coach, Alvin Gentry, clearly wants us to know that much. After previously saying the Pelicans weren’t making calls to gauge Anderson’s value around the league, Gentry reiterated that any interest in Anderson is coming from potential suitors, not New Orleans’ [...]

New Orleans Pelicans general manager Dell Demps has very little job security. As in, no job security. As in, according to CBS Sports’ Ken Berger, the Pelicans may have already handpicked his replacement: Saints GM Mickey Loomis has taken on a greater personnel role above GM Dell Demps, but rival execs understand that move is [...]

Ryan Anderson has dominated the NBA’s trade rumor mill almost as much as the Phoenix Suns’ Markieff Morris. And the New Orleans Pelicans, for the life of them, cannot figure out why.

Anthony Davis has had enough of the New Orleans Pelicans playing the part of unlikely bottom-feeder. Entering the 2015-16 regular season, the Pelicans were considered playoff locks.

Kristaps Porzingis has the approval of Anthony Davis. Which means Porzingis is officially free to retire. Davis and Porzingis squared off against one another on Sunday. The box score would suggest that Davis got the better of him, and on an individual level, he clearly did. But the New York Knicks would end up beating [...]

Karl-Anthony Towns is a monster. We knew the Minnesota Timberwolves selected a special talent at No. 1, someone who projected as the future of all big men, that three-point-shooting, rebound-wrangling, shot-blocking machine. But it was unclear how long it would take for him to develop into the complete package. He was mostly used as a [...]

Life wasn’t supposed to get any worse for the New Orleans Pelicans. But it just did. Though the Pelicans nabbed their first victory on Tuesday night, a 120-105 drubbing of the Dallas Mavericks, the win came at a cost…before it was even a win.
