After spending spells with the Boston Celtics, Orlando Magic, and Chicago Bulls, E'Twaun Moore signed for the New Orleans Pelicans back in 2016. For the first time in his career, Moore has established himself as a regular starter, and he is currently enjoying the best season of his career so far.

Moore is currently averaging 13.1 points, 2.4 rebounds and 2.2 assists per game, and the 29-year-old has also dropped 30 points on the Toronto Raptors, and 31 against the Minnesota Timberwolves. Moore's salary of $8.8 million per season represents good value to the Pelicans, and the guard appears to be a late bloomer, as despite turning 30 next month, Moore is continuing to get better with each passing season. Ultimately, Moore is a perfect fit for the Pelicans, and trading away the guard would result in New Orleans becoming a worse team.
