Chicago Bulls Receive: G Lonzo Ball
New Orleans Pelicans Receive: G Coby White, F Troy Brown Jr. and 2024 first-round pick
Let my preface by saying that if the Chicago Bulls want Lonzo Ball in a sign-and-trade, Coby White would be a likely candidate that needs to be included.
At the same time, the Pelicans would need to view White as a point guard that can develop into a long-term fixture for the organization. Under the assumption that White is included, and New Orleans is fond of White, then both sides could come to terms on an agreement.
White would be able to slide in at the starting point guard spot for the Pelicans immediately. The former first-round pick has shown glimpses of his potential so far, but his game on both ends of the court still need work.
Along with White, New Orleans would get Troy Brown Jr. and a future first-round selection. Brown would improve the depth on the roster behind Brandon Ingram.
