NBA Trade Window: 3 teams that should trade for JJ Redick

Following two hugely successful seasons with the Philadelphia 76ers, JJ Redick signed a two-year, $26.5 million deal with the New Orleans Pelicans during the 2019 offseason.

Redick's arrival came after the Pelicans had landed Zion Williamson in the NBA Draft, while the organization had also managed to acquire the talented young trio of Lonzo Ball, Brandon Ingram, and Josh Hart in the blockbuster trade that sent Anthony Davis to Los Angeles.

The addition of Redick looked set to put New Orleans in contention, but the injury-hit Pelicans have opened the season with a 6-20 record. Despite New Orleans' struggles, Redick has continued to perform well and is currently averaging 15.8 points while also shooting 45 percent from three-point range.

At 35, Redick now seems like a bad fit for an out of contention Pelicans teams, and a trade is possible ahead of the deadline. Interest is likely to be high, and here we will take a look at the three teams that should look to complete a trade for the veteran star.

#3 Orlando Magic

The Orlando backcourt would benefit from some additional quality

Following a poor start to the season, the Orlando Magic have managed to get back in the mix for a playoff spot in the East. However, the roster remains unbalanced, and the Magic backcourt looks especially weak. Terrence Ross' form has dipped following his huge offseason extension, while Michael Carter-Williams has offered little from the bench.

Collectively, the Magic have also connected with just 33% of their attempts from beyond the arc (3rd worst total in the NBA), and the team would undoubtedly benefit from adding a reliable shooter for the second half of the season.

The Magic also have plenty of young talent to send to New Orleans as part of a deal, and the addition of Redick should be enough for Orlando to secure a postseason appearance for the second consecutive year.

#2 Philadelphia 76ers

JJ Redick played a big role for the Sixers over the past two seasons

Many Philadelphia fans were disappointed to see Redick leave the Sixers during the offseason, and the team has yet to replace his production from beyond the arc. As a team, the Sixers are shooting a respectable 36% from three-point range, but Brett Brown doesn't have a go-to sniper as Tobias Harris is shooting just 32 percent from three.

Over the past few weeks, the Sixers have been linked with several three-point specialists, although it makes more sense to bring in a player who helped Philadelphia contend over the past two years, and will be able to hit the ground running due to his familiarity with the organization.

Redick would also likely welcome a reunion, although a deal will depend on New Orleans' asking price.

#1 Utah Jazz

The Jazz have yet to hit top form this season

After adding Mike Conley during the offseason, the Utah Jazz were widely backed as one of the favorites to advance from the West. However, following an excellent start to the season, the Jazz have been largely underwhelming, and it is debatable whether the current roster is better than the one that was eliminated in the first round of the 2019 playoffs by the Houston Rockets.

While Utah is currently among the best perimeter scoring teams in the league (38%), Redick would provide the team with an additional sniper, while also offering the kind of offensive production that Utah believed they were getting when they signed Conley earlier this year.

Ultimately, the Jazz are on course for the Playoffs regardless of whether they sign Redick or not. However, the veteran could prove the difference between another first-round exit and a potentially lengthy run.
