Free agents flock to like 4 cities, LA, NY, Miami. So three cities actually, 5 teams. Then if your team is good and you find the right fit places like Dallas, Houston, Golden State, can attract some players.

Nola is a top ten city in the NBA, especially for African-Americans. Now how desirable the team is to players is a different story but the city isn't the problem. And calm down about Davis we're going to sign him to the 5 year max after his rookie deal runs out, which means he'll be under contract for eight years total. We're in a very injury plagued year 2. Let's have some optimism

I have been friends with quite a few players throughout the years and most guys like the city.

How is Nola a top 10 city, especially for blacks? I guess it could be by process of elimination bc places like Milwaukee exist

Most black nba players probably don't even enjoy Nola for the reasons it is to be enjoyed: history, culture, food, music etc

They like spending money on extravagant things and having places to show it off. Clubs and parties, opportunities to "stunt". Nola isn't really like that.
