Dan Woike: BT mentions some interesting names that I’ve heard as well. I think Jeff Green would be an ideal fit as a floor-spacer. Same goes for Wayne Ellington. I’d keep an eye on JJ Redick.

One testy instance involved Durant getting irritated by then-Warriors teammates Andre Iguodala and Draymond Green in one practice session. The 2015 NBA Finals MVP recalled how it all went down during an appearance on JJ Redick’s “The Old Man and the Three.” “This is after the All-Star break, and we’re just trying to get our rhythm back with the Warriors. And me and Draymond are competitors. Like we’re trying to win, and the only way we’re gonna win is if we double team KD. KD was so mad. I’m like, bro, do you not understand what we’re trying to tell you?”, “You’re that good… you’ve got two guys who are elite, all-time on defense and we have to double team you. Don’t be mad at us bro, like you’re that good!”
J.J. Redick: “CP3 only has one move. When he gets a big on him, he’s gonna do the Lebron: gather, side-step, shoot. He doesn’t want to drive left ever even though he’s good enough. (…) He’s an anomaly. There is nobody at his size that has done this at an all-NBA level into his mid-late 30s”
Zion was not happy with JJ Redick trade
When the Pels traded J.J. Redick to Dallas in March, it not only upset Redick but also is said to have irritated Williamson. Redick had asked to either be traded before the season or to stay in New Orleans all season for family reasons and proceeded to blast the organization and executive vice president of basketball operations David Griffin on his podcast after the trade. Redick was a veteran with whom Williamson had grown comfortable in their two seasons together, and the dysfunction Redick accused the Pelicans of harboring is said to have stoked some of Williamson’s own feelings with regards to the direction of the franchise.
