The New Orleans Pelicans are contemplating a major move regarding star forward Brandon Ingram ahead of the 2024-25 NBA season.

Ingram's contract discussions have stalled as the team is hesitant to offer a max extension. They may consider a deal below that, which doesn't appeal to him.

Potential trade discussions could involve the Chicago Bulls, who have been identified as a possible target for Ingram, especially after DeMar DeRozan's departure.

Ingram's performance during the 2023-24 season, with averages of 20.8 points, 5.7 assists, and 5.1 rebounds in 64 games, underscores his value. If traded to the Bulls, his contract situation could provide the team with valuable cap space.
