Miami Heat Receive: JJ Redick

New Orleans Pelicans Receive: Kelly Olynyk, Kendrick Nunn

If the New Orleans Pelicans are looking to unload JJ Redick, he would fit in well on a contending team that needs help from beyond the arc. This is the Miami Heat. Redick would come in and help immensely.

Given his contract situation, the Heat would not have to give up much in return. Kendrick Nunn is a second-year player that would fit in well with the Pelicans’ rebuilding plan. He burst onto the scene last season and could find a new home in New Orleans.

Kelly Olynyk is a short-term veteran player who the Heat could be interested in dumping at the NBA trade deadline. The Pelicans could use his shooting ability at the five spot.

Let’s take a closer look at this deal and see how both sides would benefit from their return.
