Dante Cunningham: Returns To New Orleans
Cunningham has agreed to a three-year contract with the Pelicans worth $9 million, John Reid of The Times-Picayune reports.
Analysis:
Cunningham played in New Orleans last season where he averaged 5.2 points, 3.9 rebounds, 0.8 assists, 0.7 steals, and 0.6 blocks after 66 appearances at 25 minutes per game. As his contract suggests, he'll come off the bench yet again as he takes a backseat to Anthony Davis, Robin Lopez, and Ryan Anderson while splitting reserve time with Alexis Ajinca.
