#Pelicans again applying the defensive strategy of picking up opposing guards in the deep backcourt. Herb has been in Simons’ face 80 feet from the hoop, while McCollum is on Reddish in similar fashion – 7:20 PM

More on this storyline

Cam Reddish spent most of his time in New York on the bench, a former lottery pick with a career that was derailing on a team and coach of ill fit. But as the 23-year-old was losing a season to DNPs, Reddish took solace in his belief that the benching wasn’t about basketball. “It was tough but at the same time, it ain’t even about basketball,” Reddish told the Daily News. “It had nothing to do with basketball. It was all the politics, all the favoritism. S–t like that. That’s why I wasn’t too worried about it.” -via New York Daily News / March 11, 2023
Reddish hinted that Thibodeau’s impatience affected his confidence. With some other players like Obi Toppin, Thibodeau has been quick to sub out after a mistake. “I can shoot a shot — and in New York, I feel like I HAD to make it,” Reddish, who will face the Knicks on Tuesday in Portland, said. “I know I’m not the only person that felt like that. “I was putting too much pressure on myself. Now I can relax and play my game. You’re going to see it. The more I’m on the court, the more I’m going to grow and play. I’m happy.” -via New York Daily News / March 11, 2023
Asked about rumors of a conflict with Thibodeau, Reddish said he didn’t communicate enough with the coach to know if there were problems. “I never really talk to Thibs like that. I don’t know,” Reddish said. “And I don’t really care. I’m here (in Portland) now. I’m trying to put that in the past. Those were lower times in my career so it’s whatever.” -via New York Daily News / March 11, 2023
