re: Pelicans are not expected to offer BI extension this offseason, moving in new direction

I have no interest in any pick in this draft in a trade of BI. We have assets to attach to BI to go get a better player. We should be big game hunting, not doing some sort of soft rebuild.

TBH, I’m not sure we need a better player near as much as a better fit. BI and Zion’s game don’t gel.

Problem becomes figuring out who would be a better fit without too much of a downgrade in ability.
