Pelicans signed Josh Oduro to a two-way contract.
The center went undrafted in 2024 after spending four seasons at George Mason and one at Providence. He has been playing for the Birmingham Squadron, the Pelicans’ G League affiliate, in the two years since. Oduro has averaged 15.3 points, 7.9 rebounds, 1.6 steals and 1.3 blocks per game this season and will join a crowded center room that includes Derik Queen, DeAndre Jordan, Karlo Matkovic and Kevon Looney, though none of them started in the Pelicans’ most recent game. This is a great opportunity for Oduro, but don’t expect him to be worth scooping up off the waiver wire.
