EDGE Analysis

Hill amassed the second-highest mark in points on the Pelicans behind only Zion Williamson (13). Hill hasn't seen the court in a regular-season game since the 2022-23 season, during which he averaged only 1.0 points across 1.8 minutes per game over five regular-season appearances with Chicago. The 28-year-old is operating under a two-way contract and will likely spend most of his time with the club's G League affiliate -- the Birmingham Squadron -- though his play bodes well for a potential call-up to the NBA during the season.
