New Orleans Pelicans: Trading Lonzo Ball to the Charlotte Hornets

The Charlotte Hornets

Can we just get all of the Ball stans in one place? Let’s make this happen already.

Since the time they were children, LaVar Ball has talked about how Lonzo and LaMelo are going to play together in the NBA.

I don’t necessarily see the fit from a basketball perspective but if you are just trying to bring some attention to a team that NEVER gets it, then having both Ball brothers on one team is a way to do it.

The Pels could trade Lonzo Ball for Miles Bridges straight up, add some depth to their forward positions and unite the Balls in Charlotte.

It makes too much sense not to do it at this point.

If you are Charlotte, what do you have to lose? They already stink and have forever. LaMelo already looks like one of the best players from the draft and if they can bring on Lonzo you are suddenly the talk of the NBA.

Charlotte might do it just to sell jerseys.

The New Orleans Pelicans will have suitors for Lonzo Ball that is certain, but they need to find the best trade that maximizes his value.
