Hawks send: Dejounte Murray, De'Andre Hunter
Hawks receive: Brandon Ingram, 2026 draft pick (best of Pelicans/Bucks, top 4 protected)
Pelicans send: Brandon Ingram, 2026 draft pick, CJ McCollum, worst 2027 draft pick
Pelicans receive: Dejounte Murray, De'Andre Hunter, Wendell Carter Jr
Magic send: Wendell Carter Jr, $22m in cap space
Magic receive: CJ McCollum, worst 2027 Pelicans draft pick
Why for Atlanta: Break up the terrible Trae-Murray combo while not taking a step back, get a pick to help with draft pick debt owed to Spurs.
Why for Pelicans: Break up the poor BI-Zion combo, get a center who could hopefully help Zion a little, save some money.
Why for Orlando: Get a vet PG and a draft pick with their cap space.
