What's next for the Pelicans?

Injuries seem to have sent this season off the tracks. They could hold out hope that they right the ship when they start to get guys back. It doesn't seem that Ingram has any trade value as no team is eager to pay his upcoming contract.
Will they be sellers soon? If so who do we think is off limits?

I think they continue to explore Ingram trades if they are out of the playoff running at the deadline. I don't agree that Ingram has no trade value, I think the truth is he has had more value to the Pelicans than what teams have been willing to offer so far. Now that calculas might change if the season becomes a lost one and the Pelicans take a rental package.
I also think they might see if they could flip CJM for mostly exprings (Dlo/filler type of package). Then next season they have a chance to explore FA options. Maybe land a Myles Turner in FA, but FA options are not the greatest so that avenue might not be very appealing.
Don't think Herb would be sold unless a clear overpayment they cannot pass up. Murray too likely is safe for another season.
