NBA Mock Draft 2.0: Magic hopes to find its superstar; Jabari Smith hype

6. New Orleans Pelicans – Patrick Baldwin Jr., F, UW Milwaukee

The New Orleans Pelicans are a team that is almost impossible to predict. Especially when it comes to their approach heading into the offseason. Who knows what lies ahead for this team, especially considering that there’s no guarantee that Zion Williamson even plays at all this season.

That said, if everyone is on board and engaged, there’s a lot to like about this team’s long-term potential. Brandon Ingram has done his best to keep this team afloat in the West, but he simply doesn’t have enough help.

Patrick Baldwin would be an interesting selection even though he’s somewhat of an unknown out of UW Milwaukee. He’s averaging 13 points and seven rebounds per game so far this season for the Panthers.
