The CJ McCollum trade that was reported on earlier Tuesday morning has been agreed on by the Trail Blazers
New Orleans is receiving :
- CJ McCollum
- Larry Nance Jr
- Tony Snell
Portland is receiving:
- Josh Hart
- Tomas Satoransky
- Nicke Alexander-Walker
- Didi Louzada
- Protected 2022 1st round pick
- Two future second round draft picks
This brings the Lillard -McCollum backcourt era to an end. The winner of the 2015-15 Most Improved awards brings his career average of 19.0 ppg to a Pelicans team desperate to return to the playoffs ( and to show a certain oft-injured yet full of potential former number one pick the team is serious about competing).
