SEPTEMBER 25: Alexander’s deal is now official, the Pelicans announced.
SEPTEMBER 24: The Pelicans have agreed to a one-year, non-guaranteed deal with Cliff Alexander, Michael Scott of Basketball Insiders tweets.
The free agent forward signed a pair of deals with the Magic and Nets last season but hasn’t seen time on the court since the 2015/16 campaign in which he played eight games for the Trail Blazers.
Alexander hasn’t found much traction at the NBA level but the 21-year-old isn’t far removed from a highly touted high school career.
The addition of Alexander brings the Pels roster up to 20 players.
