Davis provided hope for Pelicans, but needs help

NEW ORLEANS (AP) The way Anthony Davis blossomed into an All-Star before he'd even turned 21 provided the Pelicans with hope for the future during an otherwise bleak season.

It also bolstered coach Monty Williams' reputation for developing young big men.

But to lead New Orleans back into the playoffs for the first time since 2011, Davis is going to need a lot more help than he had in 2013-14. The Pelicans went 34-48, finishing 15 games behind Dallas, the eighth and final playoff team in the West.
