To me, it's New Orleans.
Both teams you could argue need to mix things up after disappointing playoff appearances. The Suns need to spread out some salaries, while the Pelicans could benefit from a consolidation trade.
Durant could fetch a player haul of CJ, Nance, Murphy, plus whatever picks. Or perhaps Ingram, Nance, Daniels, something like that.
Suns aren’t trading KD or Booker. Can’t trade Beal. Especially not trading KD for the 1st package. Ingram package does not move the needle for the Suns. He needs an extension where he will be overpaid.
