The New Orleans Pelicans are making their intentions clear as they join the list of playoff-caliber teams expressing keen interest in acquiring veteran forward Rudy Gay. According to HoopsHype’s Michael Scotto, the Pelicans are among the top contenders vying for Gay’s services, along with the Golden State Warriors, Los Angeles Lakers, Dallas Mavericks, and Chicago Bulls. The 17-year NBA veteran showcased his durability last season, with only a minor setback due to a finger joint sprain that kept him sidelined for a brief two weeks. Throughout most of the season, Gay was an essential part of Utah’s rotation, proving his value as a reliable player on the court.
In recent years, Rudy Gay has adapted his game, primarily transitioning into a power forward role. Despite a reduced scoring output last season, averaging 5.2 points and 2.9 rebounds per game while shooting at 38% from the field in 56 appearances, his experience and versatility make him an attractive target for teams seeking a seasoned presence to bolster their playoff aspirations. As the New Orleans Pelicans eye the potential addition of Rudy Gay, they recognize the impact he could have both on and off the court, providing valuable leadership and contributing to their pursuit of success in the upcoming season.
