Pelicans not expected to extend Ingram; signs point to prioritizing Trey Murphy III as their wing of the future

Pelicant do anything smart
the are keeping mccollum and willie green ,but won't keep ingram and JV

No wonder why anybody wont take this franchise seriously
ingram coming back from injury has been better then trey murphy against OKC ,while zion has yet to play in playoffs because he's a glass cannon

I'll be laughing when trae young is playing garbage basketball in a pels uniform (for 43-45-48 millions ,but hE fIt WiTh zIoN)

Trade mccollum if you have to chose between the 2 ,he's a 6th man bench player earning 30 millions per year ,this is the issue ,not ingram

Also 'forbes sports" ...

Results have shown that Pelicans can’t go far with BI. If they’re smart they’d move both Ingram and McCollum in the same or separate moves and get better value back. Or just more consistently productive players. Ingram is the significantly better player between the two but he isn’t worth 50M per year. Pels have peaked with both players.

They can do better for 50M. Too much $ for an inconsistent oftinjured player who can’t get the team out of the play-in or 1st round. If he only’s good when Zion plays then he’s more of a complimentary salary player in Herb-Trey’s $ ranges.
