Exploring likelihood for New Orleans Pelicans to utilize Sign and Trade agreement and get decent return for DeMarcus Cousins

No one across the NBA should envy the position General Manager Dell Demps finds himself this upcoming offseason; however, some trust that he’ll make the right call is warranted. Just one year ago, Demps faced a critical decision involving the free agency of Jrue Holiday. He went against conventional wisdom to sign the oft-injured and underperforming guard to a five-year deal and then watched Holiday blossom into one of the best two-way players in the game. Also, who could forget that trade deadline deal with the Chicago Bulls to offload Omer Asik and add Nikola Mirotic, saving New Orleans season and his job, simultaneously.
