Pelicans/ Give away: Brandon Ingram, Jaxson Hayes Receive: Markelle Fultz, Rj Hampton, Franz Wagner, Mo Bamba 2022 frp lottery protected, 2024 frp Reasoning: The man reason they do this trade is for the future. Fit wise Brandon Ingram an d Zion is ok. I think with more spacing Ingram can operate more smoothly and attack the basket even more instead of being just a shot creator and spot up shooter. The fit of Fultz on this team isn't perfect but with him being the primary Guard on a team that will start him is crucial. With the Magic's backcourt of Suggs and Anthony, Fultz role will be limited so trading him for value is really good. They also get Franz Wagner who is a good shooter and a good all around player. You're also adding Rj Hampton that didn't have a role in Orlando or Denver and can now have one on a team without star guards or a extreme deep guard rotation. They also get Mo bamba who is in the same position as Rj Hampton he gets the opportunity to thrive on this squad. His ability of athleticism, 3 point shooting and blocking ability fits perfectly next to Zion. Because they trade away Jaxson Hayes (who wasn't a good fit) he can easily get the backup C role. Because they get worse they also get better draft picks who could potentially be a second superstar around Zion. And now you give him a supporting cast sense everybody else on the roster isn't as valuable since Lonzo left. And all of these players have high potential they just need the opportunity and the Pelicans give them that. Especially Markelle Fultz and Bamba as they were top 6 picks for a reason

Starting Rotation PG Rj Hampton/ Devonte Graham Jr SG Markelle Fultz SF Franz Wagner PF Zion Williamson C Jonas Valincunes/ Mo Bamba in the future

Magic/ Give up: Markelle Fultz, Rj Hampton, Franz Wagner, Mo Bamba 2022 frp lottery protected, 2024 frp Recieve: Brandon Ingram, Jaxson Hayes Reasoning: The magic have always been deep in guard rotation, so the fact they drafted Suggs was guaranteed off of Best available. With Fultz most likely coming off the bench it's best to move him. The worse part of this magic team has been SF for a very long time. DeMar trade rumors have been circling this team for so long but Ingram is even better. They get a SF that can drop buckets on anyone has limitless potential has a 1st option and would be a perfect fit alongside this newly set Starting lineup for the future. They also get rid of Mo Bamba who is just rotting away off the bench because of his lack of opportunity as well. And of course you're going to have to give up assets for an All-star- caliber player.
