New Orleans Pelicans: Langston Galloway

Langston Galloway, a former New York Knick, has proven that he can play in this league. In New York, he averaged 12 points, four rebounds, and three assists as a starter in New York.

Now, playing behind one of the most fragile backcourt duos in the league, in Tyreke Evans and Jrue Holiday, Galloway could end up seeing a lot more playing time than he envisioned as Evans is already sidelined until what seems to be December.

I would not be surprised if the starting backcourt in New Orleans was rookie Buddy Hield and Langston Galloway come January.
