The Pelicans renew for 2 years 9 million with one of their key rotation players

The off-season for the New Orleans Pelicans has been very promising. Despite losing Jonas Valanciunas in the NBA Free Agency, the Louisiana franchise acquired Dejounte Murray in a trade, pairing him with Zion Williamson, Brandon Ingram, CJ McCollum, Trey Murphy III, Herbert Jones...

Moreover, the Pelicans' second unit has remained equally competitive after the market, especially following the recently announced re-signing of one of their key rotation players: Jose Alvarado.

New Orleans and the 26-year-old player have agreed to a 2-year, $9 million contract, which equates to $4.5 million per season. A very affordable deal considering Alvarado's importance to the team.

Last season, Jose Alvarado averaged 7.1 points, 2.3 rebounds, 2.1 assists, and 1.1 steals in 18.4 minutes per game off the bench.
