In a push to become a more productive player by next season, New Orleans Pelicans center Alexis Ajinca is going to lean on Anthony Davis for help.
Ajinca will train in Las Vegas with Davis next month while he prepares for the USA Basketball training camp before the team participates in the FIBA World Cup in Spain, Aug. 30-Sept. 14.
...''I want to make sure I put every advantage on my side,'' Ajinca said. ''Going to Vegas to work with Anthony Davis, that's one of the things they were talking about. I'm good with that.I have to make sure I push myself to be in the best position to become a starter and improve my game.''
...''I’ve been watching tapes and I can tell sometimes I was out of shape,'' Ajinca said. ''I was also in foul trouble. I’m working on keeping my arms up. I've been working my pick-and-roll defense and hopefully I’ll get bigger and stronger.''

He showed flashes last season for sure. If he can get that midrange jumper down his offense can be an asset. His defense needs work but you can't teach 7'2".

Sounds like a great deal to me.

The big men trio should all be working out together. But they really should be working with a legit big man "coach". Hopefully they are.

If Ajinca can bulk up a lil, I really like him in some capacity yon our team.
I thought he played well down the stretch with nothing to play for but a roster spot.

Ajinca won't play in the next World Cup (30 août – 14 septembre), he's staying with his wife who is expecting their child at that time.

What a pleasant thing to hear: "I want to improve"... and actually doing something to make that happen.
