The Pelicans are in an awkward position where they have 6 starting calibre players, none of whom is a center. In the event that nothing changes between now and opening night, I'm guessing they roll out a starting line-up with Zion at the 5, with Murray, McCollum, Herb and Ingram at the other slots. If they want to compensate for Zion being very short for a center, maybe Trey replaces McCollum. It's from ideal though.
Would be interested to hear what remotely feasible deals you think are still on the table. The Cavs seem set on hanging on to Jarrett Allen for the start of the season. Danny Ainge wants a king's ransom for Markinnen. Utah are the only team with a lot of cap space to absorb large contracts. Can you convince Ainge he could get Ingram to shoot a lot of threes to turn him into a flippable contract? Swapping Ingram for Ayton doesn't solve the finances. Send Ingram to the Rockets for Steven Adams and parts?
