The Smoothie King Center is now 25 years old and showing its age in terms of modern NBA standards.
SUMMARY: The venue features upgraded lighting, a modern center-hung scoreboard, new video screens, and improved concession stands, making it suitable for NBA games. While ticket prices are affordable, the arena doesn’t meet current NBA standards. Locked on Pelicans host Jake Madison notes that the NBA favors state-of-the-art arenas that maximize basketball-related income from ticket sales and merchandise. The discussion around a new arena coincides with ongoing lease negotiations between the state and the Pelicans, who have about five years left on their current contract. Without a long-term agreement, the team could relocate if a new owner takes over.

Dental provider secures contract extension with health department | Louisiana
SUMMARY: The Joint Budget Committee has approved a one-year extension of DentaQuest’s Medicaid dental services contract, covering nearly 771,000 recipients. The decision aims to maintain patient choice and improve accountability, requiring quarterly performance reviews. While some lawmakers express doubts about DentaQuest’s progress, citing service gaps, particularly in northeast Louisiana, health officials stress the importance of choice to meet federal guidelines. Despite DentaQuest facing criticism for claim denials and a shrinking dentist network, officials argue that denying the extension could disrupt services for vulnerable populations. The additional year will allow for the development of a robust request for proposals for better service provision.
