Sources: New Orleans Pelicans are disappointing the market in informing teams that Zion Williamson, Trey Murphy, Herb Jones, Derik Queen and Jeremiah Fears will remain with the organization past Feb. 5 trade deadline.

I am sure they would move Zion.  I think this is just public messaging that the offer are not good enough.  I wouldn't trade him if I was just getting junk.   His contract is easy to get out of.    I think there is a good chance he is moved though.

Murphy is going to get a lot.   He is at least at Bane level on assets back, I think.   I think if he is moved it will be in the offseason.  He should be a core piece though, unless NO decides to tear down.   

Herb Jones is going to get a lot of interest and he may be moved to.   Due to his skillset, he is going to have a lot of interest.
