North Carolina found easy hi-lo success out of this simple Horns set, especially vs. opponents that defended pick-and-rolls by putting two on the ball or guarding to the level of the screen. During this after-timeout possession vs. UNC Asheville, the Tar Heels come out in Horns. Bacot sets the ball screen for RJ Davis, which Asheville traps.
Despite not making his New Orleans debut until March 24, the next month-plus for Nance was filled with noteworthy games, including him filling a vital role in a play-in win at the LA Clippers and two playoff victories over Phoenix. The Pelicans immediately benefited from Nance’s presence, winning five of his first seven appearances, highlighted by an April 1 road win over one of his previous teams, the Lakers. I love this group,” Nance said in his April 29 exit interview.
If not — and he does eventually want out, having him locked up helps turn him into other pieces to build around a team that I already think is a perennial 4-5 seed in the West, so I feel good about the future regardless. Travis Tate: Sign Zion! Period!!
