Pelicans Jump Back Into Second-Round; Draft Kentucky Guard Antonio Reeves
- The New Orleans Pelicans started off the day without a second-round pick. They changed that with a trade with the Orlando Magic for the No. 47 pick in the draft. New Orleans exchanged two future second-round pick swaps in 2030 and 2031 respectively, to draft Kentucky guard Antonio Reeves. The First-Team All-SEC guard made 44% from beyond the arc on almost six attempts last season.

Reeves is a 6-foot-6 guard who played for three years at Illinois State before transferring to Kentucky. During his two-year career in Lexington, he scored 1,155 points, the second-most points over two years in program history. His 20.
New Orleans has vocalized the need for rim protection and three-point shooting over the last few seasons. The Pelicans drafted Baylor big man Yves Missi with their first-round pick. Missi averaged 1.5 blocks per game during his freshman season at Baylor.
