Defending Zion, Cavs-Pelicans preview and more with Locked on Pelicans

On today's show, Chris is joined by Locked on Pelicans host Jake Madison to talk about how teams defend (or at least try to) defend Zion Williamson, what David Griffin's tenure running the Pelicans has been like and why New Orleans is interested in Larry Nance Jr. Full notes: Zion Williamson is close to unstoppable and having an incredible season. For teams, it becomes very hard to even try to defend Zion effectively. And with no Larry Nance Jr., it probably means Jarrett Allen gets assigned the job. David Griffin has a long runway in running the Pelicans - something he didn't really get in Cleveland. According to Madison, he's been a success off the court almost more than building a team on it. The Pelicans' possible offers for Nance Jr. - who the Cavs are almost certainly not going to trade anyway - aren't any good. Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!
