NBA Pelicans sales forward Murphy is being fought for by multiple teams & hope to exchange for potential young players + draft picks

On June 14, US media broke the news: NBA Pelicans management is actively promoting the trade of forward Murphy III in the offseason, hoping to exchange for veterans with instant combat effectiveness and rich playoff experience, and at the same time obtain future potential to develop players and more draft picks. The Pelicans have received telephone consultations from multiple teams in the league and are about to start substantive trade negotiations. Murphy III's combat effectiveness on both offense and defense is very attractive to any team!

24-year-old Trey Murphy III played for the Pelicans in the 2024-2025 season. He played in a total of 51 games in the regular season, averaged 35.0 minutes per game, scored 21.2 points + 5.1 rebounds + 3.5 assists + 1.1 steals + 0.7 blocks, with a shooting percentage of 45.0%, a three-point shooting percentage of 36.0%, and a free throw shooting percentage of 88.0%.

The Pelicans suffered injuries this season, and only achieved a record of 21 wins and 61 losses in the regular season, ranking second from the bottom in the 14th in the West. The team's management has decided to completely rebuild the offseason and continue to build a lineup around Fat Tiger Zion as the core. McCollum, Dezhangtai Murray, Murphy III, Herbert Jones and others can trade for future team building assets.
