Pelicans' Jordan Hawkins: Struggles from field
Hawkins produced seven points (1-12 FG, 1-6 3PT, 4-6 FT), six rebounds, two assists and two steals in 28 minutes of Tuesday's 82-73 Summer League victory over the Suns.
Through three Summer League appearances, Hawkins has shot a combined 5-of-22 from three-point range. Hawkins was a career 37.6 percent shooter at Connecticut, so he's likely due for some improvement soon.

Pelicans' Jordan Hawkins: Struggles from deep
Hawkins finished with 16 points (7-15 FG, 1-6 3PT, 1-2 FT), five rebounds and one assist in 28 minutes of Sunday's 94-86 Summer League win over Golden State.
Hawkins, who is known for his perimeter shooting, is shooting just 25 percent from three through two Summer League games. With his efficiency from deep being so low, it is promising to see him still put together respectable scoring outputs, showing his versatility on the offensive end. However, it could be difficult for Hawkins to crack the Pelicans' rotation come the regular season.

Pelicans' Jordan Hawkins: Scores 16 points
Hawkins finished with 16 points (6-14 FG, 3-10 3PT, 1-6 FT), five assists, two rebounds and two steals in 29 minutes of Friday's 102-88 Summer League loss to Minnesota.
The Pelicans were outplayed for most of the game, but Hawkins and Dyson Daniels both had promising moments. The 14th pick in the 2023 NBA Draft, Hawkins is known for his shooting and will have the green light from deep as evidenced by his 10 attempts. Unfortunately, minutes won't be easy to come by on the wings in New Orleans this season with guys like Brandon Ingram, Herb Jones and Trey Murphy around.

Pelicans' Jordan Hawkins: Taken by New Orleans with 14th pick
Hawkins was selected by the Pelicans with the 14th overall pick in the 2023 NBA Draft.
Hawkins started just four games as a freshman at Connecticut during the 2021-22 campaign, but he moved into the starting lineup last year and helped lead the Huskies to a national championship. The 21-year-old averaged 16.2 points and 3.8 rebounds in 29.3 minutes per game during his final season at the collegiate level while shooting 38.8 percent from beyond the arc. Hawkins hasn't been a stellar defender to this point, but he's an athletic player who may be the best pure shooter in the draft. Hawkins should compete with Trey Murphy, Dyson Daniels, Kira Lewis and Naji Marshall for minutes as a rookie.
