The New Orleans Pelicans are looking to add depth to their backcourt.
The Pelicans will sign point guard Elliot Williams to a 10-day deal, reports John Ried of the Times-Picayune.
Williams has signed three 10-day contracts - two with the Utah Jazz, another with the Charlotte Hornets - this season. He's averaging 3.6 points and 0.8 assists in five games.
The 6-foot-5 Wiliiams was drafted 22nd overall in 2010. He has bounced around the league in three seasons.
In order to facilitate the move, the Pelicans will reportedly waive center Justin Hamilton.
