The New Orleans Pelicans are reportedly exploring a potential trade for Miami Heat star Jimmy Butler. With a struggling record of 12-36, the Pelicans might consider involving Brandon Ingram's expiring $36 million deal in a trade, though they would likely need additional lower-salaried players to balance the financials. Injuries have plagued Ingram this season, complicating the trade dynamics and leaving questions about why the Pelicans would pursue Butler amid their own challenges. This situation highlights a complex trade scenario as the Pelicans seek to rejuvenate their roster.
A new team has emerged as a potential trade suitor for Jimmy Butler. The New Orleans Pelicans have this week registered interest in trading for Butler.
