At the end of the day, Ball is both young and good, and having him on a multiyear deal on the same timeline as Zion and Ingram is still New Orleans’ best option. Keeping him also lets them re-sign Hart and use their full mid-level exception — and hopefully build the team in a more organic way than relying on the cap-space fairy to save them.
If the Pels really want Lowry that bad, we should work something out on a Lonzo deal to bring him here and eliminate ourselves form the Lowry sweepstakes. Win/Win.
