Swin Cash parts ways with Pelicans after six seasons

Swin Cash, the New Orleans Pelicans’ senior vice president of basketball operations and a Hall of Fame former WNBA player, is parting ways with the organization after six years. Her departure follows the recent hiring of Joe Dumars as executive vice president of basketball operations, who replaced David Griffin and is actively reshaping the Pelicans’ front office. Dumars has reportedly brought in longtime NBA executive Troy Weaver to assume a key leadership role. Cash, widely recognized for her influence on player development and as a trailblazing woman in NBA management, was one of Griffin’s first hires and played a pivotal role in mentoring players like Zion Williamson. The organizational changes signal a significant restructuring effort as the Pelicans seek a new direction. Cash expressed gratitude to New Orleans and reflected positively on her tenure with the team.
