Joe Dumars was hired after no real search took place, with multiple league sources saying his is among the league’s most generous executive contracts despite the otherwise extremely tightfisted Pelicans operation under Benson. Yet as far as front-office gigs go, his appears only slightly more demanding than Kawhi Leonard’s endorsement contract with Aspiration.

The only notable New Orleans move that appeared to have Dumars’ imprint was Saturday’s firing of coach Willie Green.
