Team Info

The New Orleans Pelicans bring NBA basketball to the city of New Orleans, Louisiana, competing in the Western Conference's Southwest Division. The team plays its home games at the Smoothie King Center. Established in 2002 as the New Orleans Hornets, the franchise was renamed the Pelicans in 2013 to reflect the state bird and the region's coastal heritage. The team's colors are navy blue, gold, and red, owned by Gayle Benson and coached by Willie Green. The early years were marked by the excitement of drafting Chris Paul, who led the team to its first playoff series win in 2008. A key era of promise has been built around the number one overall draft picks, notably Anthony Davis and, more recently, Zion Williamson. The modern Pelicans are centered on the unique talents of Williamson and Brandon Ingram, aiming to translate their individual star power into sustained playoff success in a tough Western Conference. The team culture is infused with the vibrant spirit of New Orleans, featuring a passionate local fan base and the mascot Pierre the Pelican. The New Orleans Pelicans represent a blend of youthful potential and the distinctive cultural energy of their home city, striving to soar to new heights.
