Not sure that the NOP would want to move off Missi. But maybe with a lightly protected 1st and some 2nds. Along with Jarace Walker, who's a former overall #7 pick in his own draft. Could sway them, Idk. It's worth the chance for the Pacers to take a swing. They may have to mix the player's and picks up a bit more to get a deal done. But I definitely like this deal for the Pacers. I see Chicago doing this deal before I see the PELS getting involved with Missi. I know NOP wouldn't have an issue moving Alvarado at the deadline. We will have to see about Missi. Even if the Pacers don't get Missi. If they can make this trade happen with Jalen Smith and Ayo Dosunmu. That would be great for the rest of their season this year and for next season.

Thoughts?
