New Orleans Pelicans: Approaching a Nemanja Bjelica swap at deadline

We’re entering the last few days of January and the New Orleans Pelicans are winding themselves into a pretty good situation with 34 games left in their season. Seemingly, the team could be a buyer approaching the NBA Trade Deadline and Nemanja Bjelica is one of the names of interest.

Currently having a career-best season with the Sacramento Kings, Bjelica averages 12.3 points, 6.4 rebounds, and shoots 43.4% from three on 4.5 attempts from beyond the arc.

According to Kevin O’Conner of The Ringer, the Kings already offered Bjelica and a pick to the Los Angeles Lakers for Kyle Kuzma.
