NBA Trade Window: 3 All-Stars the Pelicans should target to convince Anthony Davis to stay

#2 Kevin Love

Cleveland Cavaliers v Minnesota Timberwolves

Kevin Love is currently signed to a four-year $120 million contract that he with the Cleveland Cavaliers over the summer. The Cavs decided to hand Love a huge contract after LeBron James had left for Los Angeles, and the team looked set to build their future around the 5-time All-Star.

Despite this, the Cavaliers have struggled immensely on the court, and the team has already allowed a number of their 2016 Championship winning roster move on. Love could soon be the next player, as his long term max deal no longer falls into the Cavs vision of building around youth, and as we get closer to the deadline, the Cavs may look to ship Love.

While the Pelicans will have to give up a lot to acquire Love, there is no doubting that the All-Star would significantly improve New Orleans playoff chances. The 30-year-old has historically performed best when playing as the second option on a team, and the potential duo of Davis and Love is an extremely exciting proposition.
