BREAKING: Pelicans Expected to Pursue Top Pick for Scoot Henderson

Wham Shams Thank You Mam!

Shams coming in with an absolute BOMB of a story for the New Orleans Pelicans. This could be all smoke, but Shams goes on to say they are serious in acquiring the 19 year old Guard out of the NBA G-League. This is interesting time line that has taken place

Blazers come out saying they would trade their pick for an "elite small forward". Then last week Eric Pincus of Bleacher Report comes out with his article about what teams who would need to face Salary Cap implications in the future under the new CBA. There is a summary on the Pelicans where they discuss what decision do the Pels make for 24-25 season.  If you haven't read it, click here for the link .

Now it begins to question, what assets is New Orleans willing to part with? Is it Brandon Ingram, CJ McCollum or Zion Williamson in a package of draft picks or other players? Does ownership have concerns of maintaining sustainability with this core?

Let me know what your trade ideas will be.
