New Orleans Pelicans Receive: Malcolm Brogdon
Indiana Pacers Receive: Lonzo Ball, JJ Redick, 2021 1st Round Pick
The New Orleans Pelicans would be able to use some of their assets in this deal. JJ Redick is in the final year of his contract and it makes sense for the team to dump him moving forward.
Lonzo Ball is another name that has come up in NBA trade rumors in recent weeks. He could be the piece that ultimately gets this deal done, along with a first-round pick this year.

Malcolm Brogdon would join the Pelicans and give them a solid option at the top of the offense. The Western Conference is extremely deep and difficult. It is going to take the Pelicans some time to rebuild but this is a move that would speed up the process.
Let’s take a closer look and see how this deal would benefit both sides right away.
