Zach Edey and NBA Draft Combine clears up trade market for Brandon Ingram and New Orleans Pelicans
The way the NBA Draft Combine is going means the New Orleans Pelicans could draft someone like Zach Edey, Yves Missi, Kel’el Ware, or Kyle Filipowski to be their next starting center. Jake Madison explains how doing so makes it even easier to move Brandon Ingram in a trade this offseason. Plus, keep an eye out on Dalton Knecht, Donovan Clingan, and Rob Dillingham as trade up prospects for the Pels to put next to Zion Williamson.

7'0 KELEL WARE CENTER
The athletic Joel embiid check him out
the title of this video makes me wanna throw up
Comment
Does CJ play your 6th man or trade Herb? Who plays at the 2 if we get Young or Murray
Yves missi can't shoot I don't like him
No matter what Zion, Trey and herb are untouchable
It’s time to go all in Go pels!!!
Heck yeah
He’s just a younger version of JV…. Real Clumsy but he can block shots tho
Boy i wish we don't trade bi, so i can hear you make up more dialog and pick another team on 2k, i wish we trade CJ3 too
I like Edey. He can score. The Pels biggest problem last season was they would get into an offensive funk and no one could score. Edey can do that.
Every guard in the West will Cook Trae Young
You can teach shooting. Not so sure you can teach "motor".
And I trust a senior to be less immature and less risk of being a waste of money and draft pick than a freshman.
I don’t get the trade Ingram narrative like he was the only one who didn’t show up in playoffs the whole damn team didn’t show up
A sign & trade Ingram for Maxey
Add in Dyson & Larry
Trade CJ or 6th man
Why would you go from Jonas to another slow plodding big man? That makes absolutely no sense
Grab isaiah Crawford in the 2nd round. kawhi leonard lite
I would be looking to trade CJ instead of BI.
Watching the Knicks Hartenstein play right now.
Go get him!
Every dayer
Luka struggling in the playoffs against Lu Dort is indirectly raising BI’s value. He’s not as bad as he was in that series but yeah he does he need to b better. I don’t think they should trade him just yet. This team needs a real pg and it would b interesting to see how he and Zion look with a guy who can set the table for them
Mr. ErryDat'rr 👈🏾 Thanks Jake. Let's be honest, no matter what shooter we draft, Willie won't let them play real minutes next season…..Trey…..JHawk…😒. I don't like trading anything to move up because this class is beyond weak.
Thank you Jake for talking about Edey.
I love Zach Edey as prospect but I don't know if he can work on this team if Willie Green is the coach. Willie can't even figure out how to use JV I doubt he would use Edey. I really like Ware and Missi is nice too both could/would be more ideal fit that Willie would utilize due to them being long, athletic, rim protectors.
I would rather Kelel Ware than Edwy but just me
Our horrible coach doesnt develop rookies….so none of this matters
People are sleeping on Devin Carter
One unlikely prospect that no one has talked about that I feel would be awesome is Devin Carter. Just feels to me like what Jose would be if he was 6’3. Gritty defender, solid inside scorer who can makes threes and most importantly to me is he averaged 8.3 RPG at 6’3. Missed Josh Hart’s ability to get way more rebounds than he should and I feel like Devin Carter would do just that
We have enough good players eating up minutes so if you trade BI for multiple good players, this team will eventually fall apart from mediocrity. If you reset the timeline by trading BI for a young stud, Zion will force a trade before the young guy hits his prime in five years.
The only good options are to keep BI or trade him for a potential all-star level player already hitting his prime. Anything else will fail.
Definitely didn’t think I’d be watching this much Pels content after that 1st round
For as long as i can remember , this guy hasnt been right about anything pertaining to basketball . None of the trade possibilities that he has mentuoned has ever come to fruition.
He says the team needs to shoot more threes yet wants to build the whole organization around the only guy who DOESNT shoot threes…
This guy isnt a pels fan…hes just a Zion junkie…
As long as we trade BI hes happy…and whoever who comes threatens Zion as the number one…he'll attack for the mext five years…bet..
Every dayer!! 🇵🇭🇵🇭
Problem is we have no one that throws lobs
WBD
Trade BI for Jarret Allen and draft Bronny to lure in LBJ… now you have CJ, Herb, LBJ, Zion, and JA
