The Pelicans will open their summer slate against the Portland Trail Blazers on July 9. ESPN2 will broadcast the 9 pm CST tip-off. NBA TV will air the next two New Orleans games against the Atlanta Hawks (July 11, 5 pm CST) and Washington Wizards (July 13, 5 pm CST).

New Orleans will play their fifth game on July 16 or 17, depending on the Summer League standings. ESPN will carry the championship game to be held on Sunday, July 17 at 2 pm CST.
The New Orleans Pelicans have local options to fill out their NBA Summer League roster, including a few guys from the Birmingham Squadron. The summer squad should be in shape too. Riley LaChance is gearing up for a TBT run and Jose Alvarado just flew out to join the Puerto Rican National Team.
The Pelicans were the self-declared unofficial champs last summer. They were undefeated and Murphy III made First-Team All-Summer League. Will they have the same success next month? Will Alvarado, Jones, and Murphy III even suit up next to the 2022 draftees? The team should be releasing those details soon.
