The New Orleans Pelicans have a tough decision to make about Derrick Favors and they probably won’t be alone.
Favors is a key defensive cog for the Pelicans and part of their best lineups, but he made $17.65 million this season and with extensions coming for Brandon Ingram, Lonzo Ball and eventually Zion Williamson, it may be tough to retain Favors without making a trade.
Jrue Holiday would be the most likely candidate for a trade, but do the New Orleans Pelicans really want to give up the leader of their team just so they can keep Derrick Favors?
