According to Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN, the New Orleans Pelicans are one of several teams interested in upgrading their talent level on the wing, but a lack of tradable assets and high asking prices are hampering efforts.
New Orleans is limited in its tradable assets. No one is taking the moribund contracts of Omer Asik and Alexis Ajinca without the Pelicans including a first-round draft pick -- if not more -- in the deal.
The Pelicans are optimistic that they can get starting small forward Solomon Hill back from a hamstring tear before March, but they’ve remained active.
