New Orleans Pelicans rise up with a huge draft night and No. 1 pick Zion Williamson, just after trading their best player Anthony Davis to the Los Angeles Lakers.

Zion Williamson, of course, was selected first overall by the Pelicans. New Orleans got their guy, but also a gang of other picks in the first, and second round.

The 2019 NBA Draft was highlighted by the number of trades that went down. New Orleans were certainly busy Thursday night, by being in several trade conversations with teams like Los Lakers, Atlanta Hawks, and the New Jersey Nets.
