I honestly don't think the Pels would make the move.  I think they really want to see what the team looks like with Zion, BI, CJ and the 2nd year guys all together.  Expecting a big jump from trey Murphy this year as well who actually led all rookies in 3 point % by the end of the year.  As well as JV and Nance.  Kd's health and Zions health are kind of the same concern at this point as well. Obviously one is 21 and one is 33.  Kd is one of the best ever but isn't this his 15th year in the league coming up and KD would not want to be in New Orleans either. The pels have been pretty steadfast in drafting/trading for guys that are either foreign or have southern roots, they really don't want to play the " I don't want to be here" games anymore.

Zion has finally got a personal trainer, chef and has been in New Orleans all summer and they have a solid roster along with him. He finally appears to be in great shape considering the long layoff.   BI is the leader of the team, CJ the veteran spokesmen.  Zion just needs to prove it on the court and stay healthy and obviously it's a huge question to answer but no denying his game when healthy.  It's a big year for New Orleans to really see what they have built and what's under the hood so to speak

I think chasing stars through big trades has kind of backfired for most teams if you look as to what has gone on the past few years.
