After the weak start to the season for the New Orleans Pelicans, it is expected that the front office around David Griffin will become active and trade one or the other player. JJ Redick is considered a candidate – and loud The Athletic there are various interested parties for the sniper.
Redick has only sat outside as a spectator in the last two Pelicans games, New Orleans probably wants to create more space in the rotation for the young guards Nickeil Alexander-Walker and Kira Lewis. A trade by the 34-year-old was therefore already in the room last week.
Interested parties have now also been named: Four Eastern teams are considered candidates for a redick trade. The Brooklyn Nets, Philadelphia 76ers, and Boston Celtics were made up of The Athletic brought into play, and the Philadelphia Inquirer also named the New York Knicks as interested parties.
Redick, whose family lives in Brooklyn, also wanted to go back to the east coast, which is why these goals would allegedly also appeal to him. The Shooting Guard played for the Sixers from 2017 to 2019 and experienced the most productive years of his career there.
Redick got off to a weak start in the current season, with 7.9 points and 29.8 percent from the triple line are both far from his career average. Nevertheless, there is still great interest in him. However, the discussions are still in the early stages.
