New Orleans Pelicans have opted to part ways with the former Golden State Warriors guard after a brief period on their roster. The decision came following a series of evaluations during training camp and preseason games, where the player struggled to carve out consistent playing time amidst a crowded backcourt. Despite flashes of his previous explosiveness and court vision, the guard was ultimately unable to demonstrate the level of impact the Pelicans require moving forward.

The dismissal highlights the volatility of NBA roster spots, especially for players trying to reestablish themselves. The guard’s tenure can be summarized by the following key points:

  • Duration: Less than two months with the Pelicans
  • Games played: Appeared in 3 preseason matchups
  • Highlights: Averaged 6.5 points and 3 assists per game
  • Future outlook: Free agent, potential for a mid-season pickup
