Bryce McGowens said he was working on his defense this offseason, which could make him a perfect fit in year one of Jamahl Mosley's Pelicans system.
Pelican Debrief writer Chris Lambert argues that Bryce McGowens' offseason focus on defense and strength should secure him a regular rotation spot under new New Orleans Pelicans head coach Jamahl Mosley. McGowens stated that he prioritized defensive tightening and gained eight pounds during the offseason to better handle physical perimeter play.
Last season, McGowens averaged 8.1 points, 2.1 rebounds, and 1.5 assists across 42 games while shooting 40.9 percent from three-point range. Lambert believes his floor spacing and improved defensive capability make him a versatile bench option behind Saddiq Bey, Jeremiah Fears, Herb Jones, and Derik Queen.
