Team Impact Spotlight

PLAYER NAME ROLE TIER MPG USAGE TIER PPG RPG APG STK (SPG + BPG) IMPACT INDEX NOTES AWARDS
Brandon Ingram Starter/Star [1.1] 33.9 High [1.2] 23.8 6.1 4.2 1.6 94.51 Smooth scoring forward who gradually became the focal point of the offense under Alvin Gentry, thriving in isolation and pick-and-roll situations while expanding his three-point range to nearly 39%. Ingram’s improved shot creation and playmaking turned him into New Orleans’ primary perimeter option and one of the league’s most noticeable breakout stars during the 2019-20 season. NBA Most Improved Player (2020), NBA All-Star (2020)
Jrue Holiday Starter/Star [1.1] 34.7 High [1.2] 19.1 4.8 6.7 2.4 87.38 Two-way guard who balanced lead playmaking with elite perimeter defense, often taking the toughest backcourt assignment while still initiating the offense. Holiday’s steady pick-and-roll orchestration and physical on-ball defense remained the backbone of the Pelicans’ backcourt structure throughout the season. NBA All-Defensive First Team (2018), NBA All-Defensive Second Team (2019)
Zion Williamson Starter/Star [1.1] 27.8 High [1.2] 22.5 6.3 2.1 1.1 84.74 Explosive interior scorer who instantly changed the offensive geometry of the team once he debuted midseason. Williamson overwhelmed defenders with powerful drives and quick second jumps, finishing over 58% from the field while operating almost entirely around the rim during his rookie campaign. NBA All-Rookie First Team (2020), Rookie of the Year voting 3rd place (2020)
Lonzo Ball Starter/Star [1.1] 32.1 Medium [1.1] 11.8 6.1 7.0 2.0 65.68 Pass-first lead guard who pushed the tempo and helped transform the Pelicans into one of the league’s fastest teams. Ball’s improved three-point shooting and instinctive transition passing consistently created early-offense opportunities for Zion Williamson and Brandon Ingram. Rising Stars Challenge participant (2018, 2019)
Derrick Favors Starter/Star [1.1] 24.4 Low [1.0] 9.0 9.8 1.6 1.5 48.18 Defensive-minded center whose screens, interior defense, and rebounding anchored the frontcourt rotation.

Josh Hart Key Contributor [1.05] 27.0 Medium [1.1] 10.1 6.5 1.7 1.4 45.70 Physical wing who built his value around rebounding and energy plays, often grabbing boards in traffic and pushing the ball in transition. Hart’s hustle and defensive versatility allowed him to contribute across multiple lineup combinations. Rising Stars Challenge participant (2020)
JJ Redick Key Contributor [1.05] 26.4 Medium [1.1] 15.3 2.5 2.0 0.5 46.20 Veteran movement shooter who gave the offense crucial spacing, constantly sprinting through off-ball screens to free himself beyond the arc. Redick’s shooting gravity opened driving lanes for Zion and Ingram while keeping defenses honest from deep.  
Jaxson Hayes Bench [1.0] 16.9 Low [1.0] 7.4 4.0 0.9 1.3 27.20 Springy rookie big who brought vertical spacing as a rim-runner and lob target in pick-and-roll actions. Hayes’ shot blocking flashes and elite athleticism hinted at long-term defensive potential despite his still-developing fundamentals. Rising Stars Challenge participant (2020)
Jahlil Okafor Bench [1.0] 15.6 Low [1.0] 8.1 4.2 1.2 0.9 28.80 Traditional low-post scorer who provided efficient interior offense in backup minutes. Okafor relied on footwork and soft touch around the rim to generate points when the second unit needed half-court scoring.  
Nicolò Melli Bench [1.0] 17.4 Low [1.0] 6.6 3.0 1.4 1.0 24.00 Stretch big whose main job was spacing the floor for the Pelicans’ slashing stars. Melli mixed perimeter shooting with smart passing from the high post while adjusting to the pace of his first NBA season.  
E’Twaun Moore Bench [1.0] 18.2 Low [1.0] 8.3 2.3 1.4 0.8 25.60 Reliable mid-range scorer and spot-up shooter who filled gaps offensively in smaller guard lineups. Moore’s steady shooting and ball movement helped stabilize bench units when the offense stalled. NBA Champion (2014)
Nickeil Alexander-Walker Bench [1.0] 12.6 Low [1.0] 5.7 1.8 1.9 0.6 20.00 Rookie combo guard who flashed shot-creation ability in short bursts, occasionally handling pick-and-roll duties with the second unit. Alexander-Walker’s aggressive scoring mentality hinted at future offensive upside. Rising Stars Challenge participant (2022)
Frank Jackson Bench [1.0] 13.5 Low [1.0] 6.3 1.4 1.0 0.4 18.20 Scoring-minded reserve guard who looked for pull-up jumpers and quick drives off the bench. Jackson’s offensive confidence made him a microwave scoring option in limited minutes.  
Kenrich Williams Bench [1.0] 21.3 Low [1.0] 3.5 4.8 1.5 1.2 22.00 Defensive utility forward whose contributions leaned toward rebounding, hustle plays, and positional defense rather than scoring. Williams often handled tough matchups while doing the small things that kept possessions alive.  
Zylan Cheatham Bench [1.0] 12.8 Low [1.0] 3.0 2.3 0.8 0.6 13.40 Energetic depth forward whose brief appearances showcased rebounding activity and defensive hustle in limited opportunities.  
Sindarius Thornwell Bench [1.0] 17.5 Low [1.0] 8.0 2.0 2.0 1.0 26.00 Defensive-oriented wing who saw extremely limited action but provided physical perimeter defense and occasional scoring punch when called upon late in the season.  
Josh Gray Bench [1.0] 11.5 Low [1.0] 1.0 1.0 1.0 0.0 6.00 End-of-rotation guard used briefly as emergency depth, primarily facilitating the offense in short stints.  
TEAM TOTALS   242.1   115.8 46.5 26.8 12.5   Up-tempo offensive system under Alvin Gentry leaned heavily on transition playmaking from Lonzo Ball and downhill scoring from Zion Williamson once he debuted, while Brandon Ingram’s breakout season gave New Orleans a reliable half-court shot creator.
