De'Anthony Melton has agreed to return to the New Orleans Pelicans, signing a 5 year contract worth $70,000,000. There's no player or team options in the contract.
Year 1: $15,000,000 Year 2: $14,000,000 Year 3: $14,000,000 Year 4: $14,000,000 Year 5: $13,000,000
Despite strong interest from multiple teams with exciting future's ahead of them, Melton favored staying in New Orleans with the chance of eventually competing for a title partnering up Trae Young, given he was promised a starting role alongside him.
We want to thank everyone who contacted us in Free Agency, but specially to Brian Scalabrine who always upped their offer to match up with incoming offers and for giving us the additional 5th year, he showed loyalty by drafting my client, and in a D5 league where trades are constant and players keep moving around, he never moved our client, and therefore we also want to return his loyalty by re-signing.
We are excited for what the future holds in New Orleans, Go Pelicans!
