The Pelicans and Hornets agree on the following trade. The Pels have been trying to move some of their current talent to contenders for youth or picks that fit the build plan. This trade does exactly that. Shake and Eric can help a team built to compete right now. Okoro is raw, but plays great defense so he should get a lot of minutes to develop which fits perfect with the Pels other young guys like Wiseman, Antman, Williams and Poku. RJ is really young and hasn't done too much in the NBA, but he also fits the Pels build plan and has time to develop. Thanks for the negotiations. Hornets to confirm.
