Zion Williamson still appears to anchor the Pelicans' long-term plans, but that's seemingly not the case with their other Duke basketball one-and-done.
Former Duke basketball stars Brandon Ingram and Zion Williamson have been New Orleans Pelicans teammates since the 2019-20 season. That year, the Pelicans set an NBA Blue Devil record with five of them on their roster, also including JJ Redick, Jahlil Okafor, and Frank Jackson.But ever since Redick's retirement following his 2020-21 campaign, Ingram and Williamson have been the only Blue Devils in town, albeit as centerpieces alongside CJ McCollum.
On Saturday afternoon, NBA insider Evan Sidery reported that New Orleans "is not expected to offer Brandon Ingram a contract extension this offseason."Ingram is eligible to sign a four-year, $208 million deal, but New Orleans will be going in another direction.
