By rssfeeds-admin After considerable thought and evaluation, I have decided to relieve David Griffin of his duties as executive vice president of basketball operations. This was a difficult decision, but one that I feel is necessary at this time to bring a fresh approach to our front office and build a culture that will deliver sustainable success, on and off the court. I am committed to hiring the right person to lead our basketball operations department and deliver an NBA Championship to our city. That is what our fans deserve. I am truly appreciative of David for his leadership and many contributions to the Pelicans organization and the New Orleans community over the last six years. We wish David and his wife, Meredith, and their family all the best moving forward.
Team Owner Gayle Benson
Griffin was hired by New Orleans in 2019. In his tenure, the team posted a 209-263 record and made two playoff appearances.
The Pelicans finished the 2024-25 season 21-61, the second-worst record in franchise history.
The season also consisted of Zion Williamson, Dejounte Murray, Trey Murphy III, and Herb Jones missing significant time due to injuries.
