The New Orleans Pelicans could trade Jrue Holiday to the Chicago Bulls.
The New Orleans Pelicans have been involved in just about every trade rumor this offseason, most of which include moving Jrue Holiday.
Even though Holiday is very talented and the face of the franchise, he is making $27 million, which the Pelicans can probably better allocate to get a deeper and more balanced roster.
Now that Stan Van Gundy has been hired, most assumed that Jrue Holiday would not be moved, as a hire like SVG is a sign that the Pelicans want to win now and Jrue Holiday is the type of proven veteran defender Van Gundy loves.
