EDGE Analysis
The journeyman has spent stints with several NBA teams since entering the league as as second-round pick in 2008, mostly recently appearing in 12 games for the Clippers last season. The 28-year-old was a meaningful contributor for the Mavs in 2013-14, averaging 6.9 points and 2.4 rebounds in nearly 21 minutes per game. While he's a crafty scorer and adequate defender, Douglas-Roberts struggles as an outside shooter (career 32.9 percent), making it difficult to keep him on the floor for long stretches in certain lineups. In New Orleans, Douglas-Roberts will compete with the likes of Luke Babbitt, Alonzo Gee and Quincy Pondexter for bench minutes on the wing. The details of Douglas-Roberts' contract are yet to be disclosed, but it's possible the contract is only partially guaranteed, which would make him a candidate to be waived at some point.
