J.J. Redick put the New Orleans Pelicans on blast for how they handled his trade to the Dallas Mavericks.
Redick spoke about the trade on his podcast, saying that he felt the Pels’ front office was dishonest in their handling of his departure.
This isn’t a good look for David Griffin and the New Orleans Pelicans, who are trying to build themselves as a future destination for players who want to play with Zion Williamson.
It had long been known that Redick preferred to be traded to an east coast team like the Nets or Knicks and it was looking like the two sides were headed for a buyout.
