Wishlist: A Starting Shooting Guard

Anthony Davis needs help. Anything. Anyone.

No, but seriously Ant has been a one man wrecking crew. Jrue Holiday coming back from injury has been very big for the Pelicans as they’ve seen their win total rise in the last week. Buddy Heild has shown glimpses of being a consistent shooter but nothing close to who he was at Oklahoma. Since he hasn’t quite been able to help them on the perimeter yet, they can’t rely on Solomon Hill and E’Twaun Moore to carry the load. We’re going to help them with that this holiday season.

We are giving the Pelicans a legit starting SG for Christmas!

With AD down low constantly drawing double teams, a deadly three-point shooter would infinitely help New Orleans offense. The spacing would be wide open, and you would pay the price for doubling the post as a defense. I see Bradley Beal being the perfect fit in N.O. to help with a lot of the scoring load. Things haven’t been so hot in Washington D.C. this year so maybe this Christmas wish will come true.
