Rosters:
Pistons: PG- Cunningham SG- Murphy lll SF- Thompson PF- Harris C- Duren
Pelicans: PG- Murray SG- Poole SF- Robinson PF- Williamson C- Queen
Pistons: The Pistons this season have the 9th best offense in the NBA right now. But that has been mainly the work of Cunningham and Duren, and Duren is not a very reliable scorer. They make this move for Murphy who is currently averaging 21.5 pts, 5.7 boards, and 3.8 assists with the Pelicans, this would gain the Pistons another more reliable scorer, for only the price of Robison, Holland, and a first round pick.
Pelicans: The Pelicans start their rebuild by trading out Murphy, for Robinson, Holland, and a first round pick. They gain a veteran that they can flip for picks and a young guy and a first round pick to pair with Fears and Hawkins.
