NBA Rumors: The New Orleans Pelicans show a clear interest in reinforcing their roster with Dejounte Murray, player currently with the Atlanta Hawks. Since the availability of the point guard in the transfer market was known, there has been speculation about possible destinations for him, highlighting mainly the Los Angeles Lakers and New York Knicks as the teams with which he has been most linked.

Well-known sports journalist Adrian Wojnarowski has revealed that there is a new contender in the race for Murray's services. According to his information, the Pelicans have entered into talks with the Hawks, showing serious interest in finalizing a deal. While no definitive proposal has yet been reached, negotiations could intensify as the trade deadline approaches.

Importantly, according to Wojnarowski, any potential deal between the Pelicans and Hawks would likely not involve player CJ McCollum. Instead, there is speculation that Dejounte Murray would be the main asset in the deal on New Orleans' side. In addition, it has been mentioned that the Pelicans are also interested in acquiring promising player Onyeka Okongwu, suggesting a strategy of strengthening the team at multiple positions.
