The New Orleans Pelicans were predicted to be a big part of the trade deadline but it is starting like they might not do anything at all.

The Pels have been in a ton of trade rumors, mostly circling around Eric Bledsoe, J.J. Redick and Lonzo Ball, but just about everyone not named Zion Williamson has had their name mentioned at some point.

This is to be expected, as they are a underperforming team with a lot of young talent and a ton of draft assets, which means they have all of the pieces for a splashy trade.
