Pelicans' Jeremiah Robinson-Earl: Team option picked up

The Pelicans informed Robinson-Earl on Friday that they will exercise his $2.2 million team option for 2024-25, Christian Clark of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.

After spending his first two professional seasons in Oklahoma City, Robinson-Earl joined the Pelicans in 2023-24 and made 39 regular-season appearances (one start). He averaged 2.9 points and 1.9 rebounds in 8.6 minutes per game. Robinson-Earl will presumably be an end-of-bench frontcourt option again in 2024-25.
