Brandon Ingram is the player “most likely” to be traded by the New Orleans Pelicans, according Michael Scotto of the HoopsHype Podcast.
Ingram is entering into the final season of his $36 million contract.
Ingram reportedly had a “minor exchange” with head coach Willie Green during Game 2 of the team’s first-round series against the Thunder.
Ingram has also been linked with a possible deal to the Sixers.
The Charlotte Hornets have agreed to hire Lamar Skeeter as the lead assistant coach under Charles Lee.
Skeeter spent the past decade with the Utah Jazz under Quin Snyder and Will Hardy.
The Los Angeles Lakers have interest in assistants Micah Nori, David Adelman, Sean Sweeney, and Chris Quinn as possible candidates to fill their vacant head coach position, reported Jovan Buha on Buha’s Block.
Buha adds that the Lakers are not in the stage of interviewing candidates, but they do plan to name a coach by the NBA Draft on June 26.
The organization met earlier this week to establish the criteria for the next head coach.
JJ Redick and Kenny Atkinson remain candidates for the open position.
Ty Lue would be the Lakers’ top choice should be become available, though it appears unlikely at this point.
