The Magic are able to get the experienced playmaker they need for a relatively low cost. Cole’s style doesn’t fit on this team, and moving WCJ opens up frontcourt minutes for their other players. They only have to give the Pels back their two future SRPs to get the deal done.

CJ - Suggs - Franz - Paolo - Goga

Black - Harris - KCP - Isaac - Mortiz

The Pelicans improve their overall depth with this trade and get their two future SRPs back. WCJ is a perfect fit next to Zion, and Anthony can serve as their sixth man.

Dejounte - TM3 - BI - Zion - WCJ

Alvarado - Anthony - Houstan - Herb - Theis
