The Perfect 2026 Offseason Trade for Every NBA Team
NBA trade season is never over, as teams continue to evaluate their needs and restock their assets with every new league year.
The 2026 offseason brings a whole new wave of trade opportunities thanks to increased cap space, 2026 draft picks that can be agreed upon and later traded as prospects and the 2033 first and second-round selections that become unlocked.
Will Giannis Antetokounmpo finally be moved? Do the Los Angeles Clippers decide to sell high on Kawhi Leonard? Does LeBron James ask for a sign-and-trade from the Los Angeles Lakers?
These are the perfect offseason trades for all 30 teams.
Atlanta Hawks
1 of 30
Atlanta Hawks Receive: PG Tre Jones, 2028 second-round pick, 2032 second-round pick
Chicago Bulls Receive: SF Zaccharie Risacher
CJ McCollum will be a free agent this summer. If he leaves, the Hawks may be in the market for another guard following the Trae Young trade.
Using Zaccharie Risacher, the No. 1 overall pick in the 2024 draft, as bait makes sense. The Bulls need more wings and less guards and seem to be leaning into a rebuild whereas the Hawks are ready to win now with a core of Jalen Johnson, Jonathan Kuminga, Nickeil Alexander-Walker, Dyson Daniels and Onyeka Okongwu.
Feel free to sub out Jones for your Bulls guard of choice here. Collin Sexton, Anfernee Simons or Jaden Ivey could all be sign-and-trade candidates.
Jones would be a great fit in Atlanta as the team's backup point guard and is averaging 12.5 points, 5.5 assists and 1.2 steals for Chicago this season.
Boston Celtics
2 of 30
Boston Celtics Receive: Goga Bitadze, 2026 second-round pick (projected No. 49 overall)
Orlando Magic Receive: 2026 first-round pick (projected No. 27 overall)
Nikola Vučević will be a free agent this summer and the Celtics will need another center to add to the rotation with Neemias Queta. With two players set to earn a combined $115 million next year, money will be an issue for Boston.
Bitadze is one of the more underrated big men in the NBA. Primarily in a backup role for Orlando, the 26-year-old is averaging 13.8 points, 11.6 rebounds, 2.8 assists, 1.5 steals and 2.5 blocks per 36 minutes of play.
On a team-friendly $7.6 million contract next year, Bitadze would be a good rotation big at the cost of moving down about 20 spots overall in the draft.
Brooklyn Nets
3 of 30
Brooklyn Nets Receive: Dalton Knecht, Jarred Vanderbilt, 2026 first-round pick (projected No. 25 overall)
Los Angeles Lakers Receive: Nic Claxton
After making a whopping five first-round selections in 2025, the Nets only own one first-rounder this summer.
Trading one of the remaining veterans in Claxton to the Lakers would land Brooklyn another good prospect for a franchise in the middle of a rebuild. Knecht, 24, was also the No. 17 overall pick in 2024.
Claxton gives the Lakers a better option at center over Deandre Ayton, someone who can be a defensive anchor, finish lobs from Luka Dončić and not complain about his role.
Charlotte Hornets
4 of 30
Charlotte Hornets Receive: F Derrick Jones Jr.
Los Angeles Clippers Receive: G/F Josh Green, 2029 second-round pick
The Hornets have played really good basketball over the last few months, although this roster is short on playoff experience and defensive-minded wings.
Jones would check both these boxes, as the 29-year-old brings 51 games of postseason battles with five different franchises, including a run to the NBA Finals with the Dallas Mavericks as a starter in 2024.
For a Clippers team looking to get younger, Green is 25 and shooting 42.7 percent from three this season. Los Angeles also gets a future second-round pick.
Chicago Bulls
5 of 30
Chicago Bulls Receive: C Yves Missi
New Orleans Pelicans: 2026 second-round pick (projected No. 37 overall), 2026 second-round pick (projected No. 51 overall), 2028 second-round pick
The Bulls are looking for a new franchise center, preferably someone who is young enough to grow with this core and become a future defensive anchor.
Missi, 21, is 6'11" with a 7'2" wingspan who is blocking 1.4 shots in just 18.8 minutes of play this season. He's seen a reduced role with the Pelicans due to the Derik Queen pick and DeAndre Jordan signing, signaling that the second-year center may be available.
New Orleans doesn't own its first-round pick this year, so the Bulls could send a pair of seconds in 2026 and another future selection to help the Pelicans decide to part with the former first-round pick.
Cleveland Cavaliers
6 of 30
Cleveland Cavaliers Receive: PF Giannis Antetokounmpo
Milwaukee Bucks Receive: F/C Evan Mobley, G/F Max Strus, SG Tyrese Proctor, 2026 first-round pick (projected No. 29 overall), 2031 first-round pick, 2030 first-round pick swap
The Cavs showed their willingness to sacrifice the future to win immediately by swapping Darius Garland for James Harden. Mobley, 24, may be next if it means keeping Donovan Mitchell happy and willing to sign another contract extension.
Pairing Antetokounmpo and Mitchell together is extremely tempting for Cleveland. Assuming Harden returns (player option), the Cavs would still have a core of Jarrett Allen, Jaylon Tyson, Sam Merrill, Dennis Schröder and others. Trading for the two-time MVP may help convince a certain franchise star to take a pay cut to come back to Cleveland as well.
Mobley is one of the NBA's best defenders who's on a long-term contract that the Bucks could build around. Strus will be on an expiring deal and Milwaukee gets a few first-round picks and swaps to convince them to finally trade their homegrown star.
Dallas Mavericks
7 of 30
Dallas Mavericks Receive: G Jalen Suggs, F/C Jonathan Isaac
Orlando Magic Receive: PG Kyrie Irving
Both Irving and the Mavs will need to have a sit down discussion this summer, one that should end with them mutually agreeing to part ways. Irving is about to turn 34 and is coming off a torn ACL. He'll want to chase championships for the remainder of his career while Dallas has pivoted to a rebuild and should be searching for younger point guard options to grow alongside Cooper Flagg.
Suggs may not be a true floor general, although the 24-year-old is averaging 14.1 points, 3.7 rebounds, 5.3 assists and 1.9 steals for Orlando this season. He's signed to a good contract through the 2030 season and is one of the best on-ball defenders in the NBA.
Irving is someone who can really charge up the Magic's sluggish offense with his ball-handling, playmaking and shooting ability. An All-Star last season, Irving put up 24.7 points, 4.6 assists and knocked down 40.1 percent of his threes.
Denver Nuggets
8 of 30
Denver Nuggets Receive: G Marcus Smart
Los Angeles Lakers Receive: PF Zeke Nnaji, 2026 second-round pick (projected No. 45 overall)
Denver doesn't have the trade ammunition to pull off any crazy deals this summer and should be eyeing the market for veteran point guards with playoff experience to play behind Jamal Murray.
Smart has been used incorrectly as a starter for the Lakers this season, as he's far removed from his DPOY days and is just a 32.5 percent three-point shooter for his career. He can still help run an offense, however, while defending multiple positions and carries 108 games of playoff experience from his time with the Boston Celtics.
If the Lakers want to get younger in a pivotal summer of building around Luka Dončić, they could deal the 32-year-old Smart for Nnaji (25) and a pick.
Detroit Pistons
9 of 30
Detroit Pistons Receive: SF Trey Murphy III
New Orleans Pelicans Receive: C Isaiah Stewart, SF Ron Holland II, 2026 first-round pick (projected No. 21 overall)
Not trading for another big-time offensive threat is going to come back to haunt the Pistons in the playoffs. They'll certainly be looking to correct this mistake this summer.
Murphy, 25, is averaging 21.9 points, 5.7 rebounds, 3.9 assists, 1.5 steals and making 38.8 percent of his threes for the Pelicans this season. He'd be an ideal fit in a starting lineup that also features Cade Cunningham, Jalen Duren and Ausar Thompson with his floor-spacing ability.
Stewart gives the Pelicans a big man that can finally shoot threes, solving a lot of their interior spacing issues. Holland was the No. 5 overall pick of the 2024 draft and New Orleans gets back into the first round of the 2026 draft after previously trading their selection away.
Golden State Warriors
10 of 30
Golden State Warriors Receive: F Kawhi Leonard
Los Angeles Clippers Receive: F Jimmy Butler, SG Brandin Podziemski, 2026 first-round pick (projected No. 12 overall)
Stephen Curry, Kawhi Leonard and Draymond Green would have been an unstoppable trio in 2017. Even in 2027, this would still be a group who could make a playoff run in the West.
Leonard, 34, is averaging a career-high 28.3 points this season to go along with 6.3 rebounds, 3.8 assists and 2.0 steals per game. He's registered a swing rating in the 93rd percentile or higher in all six of his healthy seasons with the Clippers.
Los Angeles hopes that Butler can return healthy from a torn ACL while also getting a good, young guard in Podziemski and a mid first-round pick to use this summer.
Houston Rockets
11 of 30
Houston Rockets Receive: G Tyler Herro, 2026 first-round pick (projected No. 18 overall)
Miami Heat Receive: F Jabari Smith Jr., G Reed Sheppard
Guard play has plagued the Rockets all season. This is a team that should look for a new starter in the backcourt this summer, even if Fred VanVleet returns from a torn ACL.
Herro, 26, is averaging 22.2 points, 4.6 rebounds, 3.7 assists and is shooting a career-high 40.2 percent from three this season. He's turning the ball over just 1.9 times a game, key for a team that ranks 28th overall in turnover ratio. Houston also gets a mid-first-round pick and opens more playing time for Tari Eason (restricted free agent) with Smith gone.
Miami has been hesitant to give Herro a long-term deal and now gets two young potential starters in Smith and Sheppard.
Indiana Pacers
12 of 30
Indiana Pacers Receive: 2027 second-round pick
Detroit Pistons Receive: PF Obi Toppin
The Pacers are already projected to be $13 million over the luxury tax line next season. A trade to dump salary is inevitable.
Parting ways with Toppin is perhaps the easiest way to get under the tax, as erasing his $15 million salary would do the job.
The Pistons could absorb Toppin into their non-taxpayer mid-level exception ($15.1 million) and use him as a possible replacement for Tobias Harris, as the veteran power forward is about to hit free agency.
Los Angeles Clippers
13 of 30
Los Angeles Clippers Receive: C Myles Turner
Milwaukee Bucks Receive: Bogdan Bogdanović, C Yanic Konan Niederhäuser, 2031 first-round pick (lottery protected)
Trading Ivica Zubac was the right thing to do considering the return, although it left the Clippers short of a starting center for next year. Brook Lopez will turn 38 next month and is best suited for a backup role.
If the Bucks end up trading Giannis Antetokounmpo and begin selling off other veterans, Turner would be a good fit in Los Angeles. He remains one of the better three-point shooting and rim protecting centers in the NBA.
Milwaukee does the deal to acquire a future first-round pick and Konan Niederhäuser, a 23-year-old center who the Clippers took in the first round of the 2025 draft.
Los Angeles Lakers
14 of 30
Los Angeles Lakers Receive: F Dillon Brooks
Phoenix Suns Receive: F Jake LaRavia, G/F Dalton Knecht, G Adou Thiero, 2026 first-round pick (projected No. 25 overall)
If LeBron James leaves the Lakers in free agency, the team will need a new starting power forward. As hilarious as it would be for Brooks to join forces with James, he'd still be a great fit as a defender and complementary scorer next to Luka Dončić.
The 30-year-old is enjoying the best season of his career for the Suns, averaging 20.9 points, 3.7 rebounds and 1.0 steals.
As a team mostly led by 20-somethings, the Suns stock up on additional young talent and get back into the first round of the 2026 draft.
Memphis Grizzlies
15 of 30
Memphis Grizzlies Receive: F DeMar DeRozan, G Malik Monk, PG Devin Carter
Sacramento Kings Receive: PG Ja Morant
It would be a surprise to see the Grizzlies begin next year with Morant still on the roster. It appears a fresh start for both would be welcomed.
There's not going to be any great return for Morant, however, or a deal would have gotten done at the trade deadline. Taking back a few veterans in DeRozan and Monk who could be re-routed to a contender and a former first-round pick at guard in Carter may be the best offer there is.
The Kings reportedly had interest in Morant at the deadline, and for this price, why not?
Miami Heat
16 of 30
Miami Heat Receive: PG Ja Morant, SG Cam Spencer
Memphis Grizzlies Receive: SF Andrew Wiggins, PG Davion Mitchell
Besides the Sacramento Kings, the Heat were reportedly the only other team to inquire about Morant at the trade deadline.
Sending Wiggins and Mitchell to make the money work still seems a bit steep of a price to pay, especially considering what the Atlanta Hawks got for Trae Young.
The Grizzlies also agree to include Spencer, a 25-year-old guard who's averaging 11.4 points, 5.5 assists, shooting 44.3 percent from three and leading the NBA in free-throw percentage (93.4 percent).
Milwaukee Bucks
17 of 30
Milwaukee Bucks Receive: SF Franz Wagner
Orlando Magic Receive: F Kyle Kuzma, F/C Bobby Portis, 2026 first-round pick (top-3 protected, projected No. 10 overall)
If the Bucks want to keep Giannis Antetokounmpo happy and convince him to sign an extension this offseason, they may need to sacrifice their greatest trade asset; their own 2026 lottery pick.
Wagner is a player to keep an eye on, especially if the Magic bow out of the playoffs in the first round once again. They're already projected to blow past the first apron with Paolo Banchero's new max deal kicking in and may be looking for a roster shakeup featuring long-term salary relief.
Where the Bucks' pick lands will matter. Milwaukee shouldn't deal a top-3 selection for Wagner, although something in the 5-to-10 range may be worth it for a 24-year-old who's averaging 21.3 points, 5.8 rebounds, 3.6 assists, 1.1 steals and is shooting 36.5 percent from three.
Minnesota Timberwolves
18 of 30
Minnesota Timberwolves Receive: PG Ja Morant, C Zach Edey
Memphis Grizzlies Receive: C Rudy Gobert, G Donte DiVincenzo, 2026 first-round pick (projected No. 29 overall)
The Wolves are still searching for a long-term answer at point guard alongside Anthony Edwards. Morant perhaps has the highest upside of all the options who will be available this summer.
A starting five of Morant, Edwards, Jaden McDaniels, Julius Randle and Naz Reid has some other-worldly offensive potential. If Edey can shake off his early career ankle injuries, he can become a walking double-double as well.
The Grizzlies can keep Gobert as their answer at center or look to flip him and DiVincenzo to contenders if they continue to lean into a rebuild. This trade would also give Memphis its third first-round pick in 2026.
New Orleans Pelicans
19 of 30
New Orleans Pelicans Receive: F OG Anunoby
New York Knicks Receive: PF Zion Williamson
The Pelicans are going to have to take a hard look at their frontcourt this offseason. A Williamson-Derik Queen power forward-center combo has a net rating of minus-11.0 in 1,345 possessions together, ranking in the 12th percentile via Cleaning the Glass.
New Orleans has made the playoffs just twice in Williamson's seven years, and the 25-year-old missed both series due to injury. It may be time to part ways and focus on developing Queen's game instead. Anunoby and Herb Jones would give the Pels two of the best defensive wings in the NBA.
If the Knicks bow out early in the playoffs, they may have to re-think their core. A starting five of Jalen Brunson, Josh Hart, Mikal Bridges, Williamson and Karl-Anthony Towns would have an extremely high ceiling.
New York Knicks
20 of 30
New York Knicks Receive: PF Giannis Antetokounmpo
Milwaukee Bucks Receive: PF Zion Williamson, F Herb Jones, 2026 first-round pick (via Knicks, projected No. 26 overall), 2033 first-round pick (via Knicks, unprotected)
New Orleans Pelicans Receive: F/C Karl-Anthony Towns
The Knicks-Antetokounmpo chatter will likely continue this summer, especially if New York falls short of a championship.
Two additional first-round picks will open up for the Knicks to offer in a potential trade, giving the Bucks some more motivation to listen. Adding Antetokounmpo to a core of Jalen Brunson, OG Anunoby, Mikal Bridges and Josh Hart is tantalizing.
The Pelicans get a floor-spacing center and six-time All-Star to pair alongside Derik Queen in the frontcourt and the Bucks receive multiple first-round picks, Williamson and Jones.
Oklahoma City Thunder
21 of 30
Oklahoma City Thunder Receive: C Isaiah Stewart
Detroit Pistons Receive: G Alex Caruso
The Thunder are currently projected to be $38 million over the second apron if they bring their whole team back next season. It's more likely they'll decline a $28.5 million team option on Isaiah Hartenstein, potentially putting the Thunder in the market for a new starting center.
In 13 starts, Stewart is averaging 12.5 points, 5.2 rebounds, 2.0 blocks and shooting 35.9 percent from three in 26.9 minutes. He's making a flat $15 million in each of the next two years.
As valuable as Caruso is, the Thunder have a plethora of guards, especially with the emergence of Ajai Mitchell. He'd be a welcomed addition to the Pistons as someone who can run the offense, provide high-level defense and has 54 playoff games and two championship rings on his resume.
Orlando Magic
22 of 30
Orlando Magic Receive: PG LaMelo Ball
Charlotte Hornets Receive: G Jalen Suggs, F/C Wendell Carter Jr.
Orlando took a big leap from the No. 27th-ranked offense in 2024-25 up to No. 14 now, although there's too much talent on this roster to be satisfied with being in the middle of the pack.
LaMelo Ball's playmaking would put a charge into Paolo Banchero, Franz Wagner, Desmond Bane and others, and his three-point shooting (3.5 per game, 3rd in NBA) is much needed as well.
The Hornets should now be building around Kon Knueppel, who's having the greatest shooting season from a rookie in NBA history. Suggs is a premier defender and Carter brings some floor-spacing to the center position for Charlotte.
Philadelphia 76ers
23 of 30
Philadelphia 76ers Receive: PF Giannis Antetokounmpo
Milwaukee Bucks Receive: G/F VJ Edgecombe, G/F Paul George, 2026 first-round pick (projected No. 24 overall), 2030 first-round pick (unprotected), 2032 first-round pick (unprotected), 2028 second-round pick, 2028 second-round pick (via Bucks), 2029 second-round pick, 2031 second-round pick
Could Antetokounmpo, Tyrese Maxey and Joel Embiid become the next Big 3 in the NBA? The 76ers use some of their draft capital acquired in the Jared McCain deal to go after the two-time MVP and push Philly back towards the top of the East.
When healthy, an Antetokounmpo-Embiid pairing is the best frontcourt in the NBA, able to physically dominate games with their size and strength. Both are underrated passers as well, making sure Maxey is still getting his share of shots.
The Bucks probably have some hesitation taking on George, although Edgecombe is a future All-Star and one of the league's most athletic wings already. Add in three first-round picks and four future second-rounders and this is a good haul overall.
Phoenix Suns
24 of 30
Phoenix Suns Receive: PG Ja Morant, F GG Jackson II, PG Cam Spencer
Memphis Grizzlies Receive: SG Jalen Green, C Khaman Maluach
Moving Devin Booker back to a full-time shooting guard role should be a priority for the Suns, as Phoenix has a net rating of plus-8.7 with Booker at the two vs. plus-1.5 when he's at the one.
Morant's 8.1 assists per game are tied for 6th-most in the NBA, allowing him to take over playmaking duties and letting Booker focus on his own scoring. Jackson, 21, is averaging 17.8 points and 5.9 rebounds over his last 13 games and Spencer is making 44.3 percent of his threes this year.
Ty Jerome is having a big year as the new starting point guard for the Grizzlies and Green gives him a young, complementary scorer who's been playing great basketball as of late. Maluach needs some developing, although the No. 10 overall pick in the 2025 draft could be brought along slowly for a Memphis team now shifting into rebuild mode.
Portland Trail Blazers
25 of 30
Portland Trail Blazers Receive: PF Giannis Antetokounmpo
Milwaukee Bucks Receive: PG Scoot Henderson, G/F Shaedon Sharpe, F Jerami Grant, C Yang Hansen, 2026 first-round pick (projected No. 11 overall)
Ok, one more Giannis trade idea.
Antetokounmpo should actually be thrilled with the idea of playing in Portland. The Blazers have a young All-Star in Deni Avdija, one of the best defensive wings in the NBA in Toumani Camara and a pair of veteran guards in Jrue Holiday and Damian Lillard that Antetokounmpo has played with before.
The Blazers keep all of their future first-round picks (including ones owed from Milwaukee), giving them the option to further upgrade the roster as needed as well.
Portland gets three former first-round picks who all still pack a ton of potential. Grant is averaging 18.8 points per game and could be shopped to a contender at a later date while the Blazers' pick should be a lottery selection.
Sacramento Kings
26 of 30
Sacramento Kings Receive: SF Ron Holland II, C Isaiah Stewart, G/F Caris LeVert, 2026 first-round pick (projected No. 22 overall)
Detroit Pistons Receive: F/C Domantas Sabonis
Whether they like it or not, the Kings need to dive head first into a rebuild this summer. This means finding trades for Zach LaVine, DeMar DeRozan and Sabonis, who will fetch the most in return.
Holland was the No. 5 overall pick just a year ago, a 6'8" wing who currently has the sixth-highest steal percentage in the NBA. Stewart, 24, brings toughness and interior defense while LeVert is a veteran wing on an expiring $14.8 million contract. The Kings also pick up an extra first this summer.
Detroit pairs Sabonis in the frontcourt with Jalen Duren, giving them another elite rebounder who can also pass and scorer from all three levels. Sacramento was far better with Sabonis at the four this year, giving up over 19 fewer points per 100 possessions compared to when he played the five.
San Antonio Spurs
27 of 30
San Antonio Spurs Receive: SG Donovan Mitchell
Cleveland Cavaliers Receive: SG Dylan Harper, G/F Devin Vassell, 2027 first-round pick (via Atlanta Hawks), 2029 first-round pick (unprotected)
If the Cavs crash and burn in the playoffs and Mitchell refuses to sign an extension, Cleveland may be forced to listen to trade offers before he hits unrestricted free agency in 2027. The Spurs have proven that they're ready to start competing for championships, yet could use more playoff experience on the roster.
A core of Victor Wembanyama, Mitchell, De'Aaron Fox, Stephon Castle and others would be terrifying to face on both ends of the ball.
Cleveland may be forced to reset around Evan Mobley if Mitchell won't commit to the franchise. Harper, 20, was the No. 2 overall pick in last June's draft and looks like a future All-Star. Vassell, 25, is averaging 14.3 points, 3.8 rebounds, 2.4 assists and making 38.3 percent of his threes this year and the Cavs pick up a pair of future first-round picks.
Toronto Raptors
28 of 30
Toronto Raptors Receive: F Kawhi Leonard
Los Angeles Clippers Receive: SF Brandon Ingram, F/C Colin Murray-Boyles, SG Ja'Kobe Walter, 2026 first-round pick (projected No. 17 overall)
I mean, trading for Leonard worked out pretty well the first time…
Although there's a risk of him leaving in free agency (again) next summer, Leonard would have the Raptors competing for the 2027 title alongside a core of Scottie Barnes, RJ Barrett and Immanuel Quickley. The two-time Finals MVP is still playing elite basketball and has been one of the best players in the world this season.
The Clippers continue to swap older stars for younger ones, adding Ingram to a roster now with Darius Garland and Bennedict Mathurin. Murray-Boyles was the No. 9 overall pick in the draft last summer and Walter, 21, was selected No. 19 overall in 2024.
Utah Jazz
29 of 30
Utah Jazz Receive: G/F Jaylen Brown
Boston Celtics Receive: F Lauri Markkanen, G/F Ace Bailey, F/C Kyle Filipowski, 2027 first-round pick (via Los Angeles Lakers, top-4 protected)
Danny Ainge is clearly trying to win next season, as evidenced by the trade deadline deal for Jaren Jackson Jr. He should have strong interest in reuniting with Brown, who proved this season that he can be a No. 1 offensive option.
If Brown doesn't want to play a sidekick role alongside Jayson Tatum any longer, the Jazz would be an intriguing new home. Jackson, Keyonte George and Walker Kessler (restricted free agent) plus Utah's 2026 first-round pick is a really good foundation.
The Celtics get some help now and in the future. Markkanen is averaging 26.7 points, 6.9 rebounds, 2.1 assists and 1.0 steals per game and should be in the prime of his career at age 28. Bailey was the No. 5 overall pick last summer and Filipowski, 22, is putting up 13.2 points, 8.6 rebounds and 3.1 assists in his 30 starts. A lightly protected first-rounder from the Lakers next summer helps Boston part with Brown.
Washington Wizards
30 of 30
Washington Wizards Receive: G/F Herb Jones
New Orleans Pelicans Receive: F Bilal Coulibaly, F Cam Whitmore
After trading for Anthony Davis and Trae Young, the Wizards clearly plan to chase the playoffs in 2027. This roster may still be too young, and too defensively challenged, to cover for Young on that side of the ball, however.
Jones, 27, speeds up the timeline even more. He's a former All-Defensive team member with a 7-foot wingspan that can play between the two stars while still sprinkling in some of Washington's better prospects (likely Alex Sarr and Tre Johnson).
At 22-46, the Pelicans need more young talent to build around. Both Coulibaly and Whitmore are 21-year-old former first-round picks who New Orleans can play between Zion Williamson and Jeremiah Fears.
