Uusi tulokas Dejounte Murray lupaa nostaa Pelicansin uudelle tasolle yhdessä Zion Williamsonin kanssa. Mutta tarvitaanko joukkueeseen silti vielä lisää vahvistuksia? Lue lisää!

Dejounte Murray, tuore vahvistus New Orleans Pelicansin riveissä, on valmis tuomaan uutta intoa joukkueeseen. Pelicansin pelinrakentaja kertoi medialle olevansa täynnä itseluottamusta ja haluavansa auttaa joukkuetta saavuttamaan uusia korkeuksia yhdessä tähtipelaaja Zion Williamsonin kanssa. Murray, joka valittiin läntisen konferenssin all stars -joukkueeseen kaudella 2021-22 ja johti NBA:ta riistoissa, tuo mukanaan kokemusta ja johtajuutta, jota Pelicans kaipaa.

Uusiutunut Pelicans on myös vahvistanut rivejään hankkimalla ilmaisella pelaajamarkkinoilla uuden keskushyökkääjän, Daniel Theisin. Vaikka joukkue on täydentynyt, kysymys nousee siitä, tarvitaanko silti lisää vahvistuksia korvaamaan Jonas Valanciunasin jättämä aukko.

Erityisesti Brandon Ingramin tilanne herättää kysymyksiä, sillä huhut pelaajan mahdollisesta siirrosta eivät ole saaneet tuulta alleen. Ingramin odotetaan harkitsevan tiimityöntekijälle sopivaa jatkosopimusta. Nähtäväksi jää, kuinka tilanne kehittyy.

Dejounte Murray lupaa työntää Pelicansin uudelle tasolle yhdessä joukkuetoveriensa kanssa. Uusi tulokas tuo mukanaan intoa ja odotuksia joukkueeseen, joka pyrkii vahvistumaan ja pääsemään uusiin saavutuksiin, tavoitteenaan vakiinnuttaa asemansa kilpailukykyisenä NBA-joukkueena.
