The Pelicans have waived power forward/center Christian Wood, Shams Charania of The Athletic tweets.
Wood had a non-guaranteed $1,645,357 salary, of which $822,679 would have become guaranteed if he was on the opening-day roster. The Pelicans now have 13 players with fully guaranteed contracts and two others with non- or partial guarantees.
The Bucks waived Wood in March and the Pelicans claimed him. Wood saw spot duty in 13 games with Milwaukee. He played eight games with New Orleans, including two starts, and averaged 16.9 PPG and 7.9 RPG.
By letting go of Wood, New Orleans opens up a spot for Italian power forward Nicolo Melli, who agreed to a two-year contact in late June.
COME BACK TO THE BUCKS BABY
He averaged 18 and 7 and shot 53% for the Pels off the bench and they cut him? SMDH
This guy is the new Sean Kilpatrick
Psh. Kilpatrick could do 4 teams in like a week.
He should go to the spurs
Someone will pick Wood up surely, the dude is a straight up SCORER!!
