“The Free Agent Center Kevon Looney has agreed with two years, $ 16 million, Reap Espn sources, CEO Life Sports Agency and Pelicane reached a triple NBA champion that suddenly NBA champs arrive within three years.”
Looney can have the opportunity to play a big role in New Orleans. It is more likely to be the IVES MISSI backup option, which displayed solid potential in its Rookie season. But it is a situation that allows Looneie to play a rotational role for the pelicane team that requires depth in central position.
The veteran center played 76 games for warriors last season, making it incredibly durable player in the league. Pelicans will hope for it to bring that durability to the list.

Looney is not the only big man, which the new Orleans gained this exposing. The Pelicans are trading for Queen Derik From Merlanda immediately after selecting Atlanta Hawks with a total choice no. 13. So, New Orleans will have a lot of size low for the next season.
