Here’s what you need to know: 聯盟消息人士在星期一向《運動家》表示，紐奧良鵜鶘隊預計將會在二零二三年的選秀大 會中，積極追求探花籤或榜眼籤。 The Pelicans currently have the No. 14 pick in the upcoming draft. Henderson is expected to be drafted No. 2 by the Charlotte Hornets, according to The Athletic’s latest mock draft. 鵜鶘隊目前手上有第十四樂透順位，而按照模擬抽籤的結果，Henderson 預計將作為榜眼 獲得夏洛特黃蜂隊的青睞。 In his second and final season with Ignite, Henderson averaged 16.5 points, 6.5 assists, 5.4 rebounds and 1.1 steals per game. 在引燃隊的第二個賽季期間，Henderson 場均得到了十六點五分、六點五次助攻、五點四 個籃板和一點一次抄截。 Backstory 背景故事 New Orleans is drafting in the lottery for the fifth straight season since selecting two-time NBA All-Star Zion Williamson with the first pick in the 2019 NBA Draft. After landing the 14th pick in the upcoming draft, the Pelicans are looking to move to the opposite end of the lottery to potentially take Henderson. 自從在二零一九年選秀中，使用狀元籤挑中兩次入選前三隊的Zion Williamson 以來，鵜 鶘隊已經是連續第五年參與選秀大會。在即將到來的選秀中得到第十四順位後，鵜鶘隊希 望能出現在樂透的另一端，以便可以得到 Henderson。 Can the Pelicans pull this off? 鵜鶘隊能做到嗎？ People within the Pelicans organization have showed a great deal of interest in Henderson throughout the draft process. Pulling off a deal to get the No. 2 or No. 3 pick in this year’s draft won’t be easy, though. New Orleans has two clear paths to make this happen: give up a large package of picks and/or young players or offer up one of its young stars. 在整個選秀過程中，鵜鶘隊組織內部的人對Henderson 表現出了極大的興趣。不過，要想 在今年的選秀中獲得榜眼籤或探花籤並不容易。鵜鶘隊有兩條明確的途徑來實現這一目標 ：放棄一大批選秀權和／或年輕球員，或提供其年輕球星中的一員。 The Pelicans have as much trade ammo as anyone in the league outside of Utah and Oklahoma City. Along with all their own future first rounders, New Orleans still owns one more Lakers pick in either 2024 or 2025 and Bucks picks in 2025 and 2027. 在爵士隊和雷霆隊之外，鵜鶘隊擁有大量的交易籌碼。除了本身擁有的未來首輪籤外，鵜 鶘隊還有一支來自湖人隊的二零二四或二五年樂透籤，以及來自公鹿隊的二零二五及二七 年樂透籤。 I’m sure potential suitors would be more interested if Brandon Ingram or Williamson became available. 我相信如果Brandon Ingram 或Williamson 能被交易的話，潛在的追求者將會更感興趣。 Williamson’s recent off-court drama and long history of injuries have made some weary of his status as face of the franchise, but I’d still bet on the Pelicans leaning into his potential rather than trading him this early in his career. I’d also be shocked to hear Ingram’s name involved in any of these talks. — Guillory Williamson最近的場外活動和長期的傷病史，使一些人對他作為這球團代表的地位感到厭 倦，但我仍然打賭鵜鶘隊會傾向於挖掘他的潛力，而不是在他職業生涯的早期將其交易出 去。如果聽到 Ingram 的名字出現在這些談判中，我也會感到震驚。 How would Henderson fit in New Orleans? Henderson 將如何融入鵜鶘隊？ Well, it depends on who he’s playing with. If the Pelicans pull off a deal that allows them to add Henderson while keeping Ingram and Williamson, they’ d have one of the most dynamic and explosive young trios in the NBA. This team would be must-watch TV as long as everyone is healthy and on the floor. 這要看他和哪些球員一起上場了。如果鵜鶘隊能在留住 Ingram 和 Williamson 的同時， 成功拉攏Henderson 加入，他們將擁有聯盟中最有活力和爆發力的年輕三人組。只要每個 人都健康無事，這球隊將成為電視上的焦點。 Henderson would also bring a downhill, up-tempo style at the point guard position that doesn’t always exist with CJ McCollum and Jose Alvarado. Having someone like Henderson who can get into the paint and create looks at the rim or spray out to shooters would make life much easier on Ingram and Williamson. If someone like Williamson has to go in order to bring Henderson in, things would be much different in New Orleans. Henderson 還將在控球後衛的位置上帶來一種下坡的、快節奏的風格不像 CJ McCollum 和 Jose Alvarado 一般常常會出現。能有像Henderson 這樣的人，可以進入禁區，在籃 下創造機會，或向射手噴射，將使 Ingram 和 Williamson 變得更輕鬆。如果像 Willia- mson 這樣的人必須離開以使Henderson 加入，那麼鵜鶘隊的情況將大不相同。 There would be a ton of pressure on Henderson to not only bring high level of production early for a team that still sees itself as a playoff contender. But he’d also have a lot of pressure to not repeat some of the mistakes Williamson has made in the past regarding his relationship with the organization and some of the people he surrounds himself with off the court. — Guillory Henderson 將承受很大的壓力，因為他不僅要為一支仍然認為自己是季後賽競爭者的球隊 提前帶來高水準的表現，但他也會有很大的壓力，不能重複 Williamson 過去所犯的一些 錯誤，即他與球隊的關係和他在球場外圍繞著自己的一些人。 短評： 一切順利的話，再來說吧...
