New Orleans Pelicans: How Will Weaver fits in New Orleans
Will Weaver’s Fit in New Orleans
If the Pelicans are looking for a guy with a strong history of player development, then Will Weaver could be their guy.
Not only does Weaver have the endorsement of Sam Hinkie, who is widely considered one of the best minds in basketball, but he has been successful everywhere he’s been.
He already has a working relationship with Trajan Langdon and the two of them have had success working together and developing players.
He also has a working relationship with Didi Louzada, who will likely be joining the New Orleans Pelicans at some point next season.

Weaver has drawn high praise everywhere he’s been, and has the type of history the Pelicans should be looking for in a coach.
He is also known to have a cutting-edge basketball mind and would bring fresh ideas and concepts rather than trotting out the same offense he ran somewhere else.
Will Weaver is the type of contemporary coaching candidate that teams have been trending towards, as he was not a former great player, but a sharp basketball mind who worked his way up.
He still lacks experience and may be a long shot, but if the New Orleans Pelicans decide to take a risk, he has the background and connections to be a solid choice.
Will Weaver is going to end up coaching an NBA team eventually and it just might be the New Orleans Pelicans.
