- Pelicans head coach Willie Green – whose team had a strong second half, earned a playoff spot in the play-in tournament, and played Phoenix tough in the first round – sees parallels between this year’s Pelicans and the 2020 Suns, per Christian Clark of NOLA.com. “(Suns head coach) Monty (Williams) and I talked about it in the hallway after the game,” said Green, who was an assistant on Williams’ staff when the Suns went 8-0 in the 2020 Orlando bubble. “… Those moments, that experience will help us in the future. That’s very similar to what we went through in Phoenix together.”
