The New Orleans Pelicans are 0-7. Anthony Davis doesn’t deserve this. Heck, Pelicans fan don’t deserve this. But, here we are.

New Orleans is bad. Really bad. And there doesn’t seem to be any light at the end of this year’s tunnel. Perhaps the biggest disservice here is that there’s absolutely nothing that Davis can do about it. He’s locked under contract until the end of the 2019-20 season.

Yup. Get used to this. Davis is going to put up great numbers, but will continue to lose. Hopefully, the Pelicans can figure this out. The last thing we need is for Davis to waste away his prime years for a 10-72 team.
