Brandon Ingram on Tony Snell/Larry Nance: “Tony can defend and shoot from beyond the arc. Larry is a great defender, has good hands and can step out and shoot the three. They bring experience, energy and another dimension to our team where we can stretch the floor.” – 11:53 PM

The Pelicans have landed a shooter + versatile big!
Needing to shore up the guard position & roster depth, New Orleans acquires CJ McCollum & Larry Nance Jr. from the Trail Blazers.
Trading Josh Hart hurts, but Nola fills several holes in one fell swoop. https://t.co/UyfV3PGQmH pic.twitter.com/9plfCrW1gp – 11:23 AM
