Pelicans: Waived G Dominique Daniels Jr.

The New Orleans Pelicans have released guard Dominique Daniels Jr., trimming their roster as the season ends. The club finished the year 26‑56, sitting at 11th in the Western Conference, with a power‑rank of 23 and a net rating of –4.4. They entered the final stretch on a two‑game losing streak and have gone 1‑9 in their last ten contests.

Given the team’s struggles, the front office is expected to keep evaluating its backcourt options during the upcoming offseason. Observers should watch the training camp and any further roster moves as the Pelicans look to add depth or develop younger talent in hopes of improving their standing for the next campaign.
