Pelicans Bring Back Trey Jemison – Latest Roster Move!
By Rell Wright, Pelicans Contributor
The New Orleans Pelicans have bolstered their roster by claiming center Trey Jemison off waivers, awarding him a two-way contract. Standing at 6-10 and weighing 260 pounds, Jemison showcased his potential last season with the Washington Wizards and Memphis Grizzlies, averaging 6.8 points, 5.4 rebounds, and 1.1 assists in 22.9 minutes per game over 25 appearances.
His standout performance with the Birmingham Squadron, where he averaged 9.4 points, 11.6 rebounds, and 1.9 blocks per game, underscores his defensive skills and rebounding skills. Jemison joins a formidable frontcourt alongside Daniel Theis, Yves Missi, and Karlo Matkovic, promising a bright future for the Pelicans.
He had several impressive moments/performances for #Pelicans during preseason and was productive for Memphis during regular season, with Grizz battling many injuries https://t.co/LBJ6i2aRYh

E.J. Liddell Traded to the Suns in Exchange for David Roddy
According to Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN, E.J. Liddell is on the move for the second time this summer, as the Atlanta Hawks have dealt him to the Phoenix Suns in exchange for David Roddy. Liddell, a 6-foot-7 forward, only appeared in eight games with the Pelicans, averaging 2.9 minutes per contest, where he scored four total points and grabbed five rebounds.
