New Orleans Pelicans 2020 NBA Draft Profile: Killian Tillie
By Nick Alvarez
Killian Tillie could be an ideal target for the New Orleans Pelicans in the second round of the 2020 Draft
The New Orleans Pelicans season is now over. This means that team’s front office should be turning most of their focus to the 2020 NBA Draft where they’ll have the best opportunity to add to their young roster.
With the team holding three second-round picks, it might be wise for them to take a look at Gonzaga’s big man Killian Tillie. Tillie is a player that is a first-round talent but thanks to durability concerns and a difficult pre-draft process this season, he might be available for the Pelicans in the second round.
If the Pelicans get him there then it would be a coup because the team could potentially come away with two first-round picks. With Killian Tillie, the Pelicans could be bringing a first-round talent that would be the perfect complement to the team’s budding trio of stars.
A steal in the draft with a player who could be an impact big man would definitely be a roster improvement for the New Orleans Pelicans, one that could even help them leap into contention.
