Per @cleantheglass, the Pelicans’ starters without Zion (CJ-Herb-BI-Trey-JV) have a minus-26.3 net rating so far this season.
That’s the worst of any 5-man unit with at least 300 possessions. The second-worst group has a minus-15.4 net rating.

CJ McCollum said on his latest podcast episode that the New Orleans Pelicans had meaningful conversations a few days ago.
