Hunter Dickinson News: Joining Pels on two-way deal

Dickinson agreed to a two-way contract with the Pelicans on Thursday, Shams Charania of ESPN reports.

After a prolific five-year college career with Kansas, Dickinson wasn't selected in the 2025 NBA Draft, but he quickly found a home in New Orleans. The 24-year-old center will add depth to the Pelicans frontcourt but is expected to see the vast majority of his playing time as a rookie with New Orleans' G League affiliate, the Birmingham Squadron.
