New Orleans | Indiana Trade - Zklizlolsb96 - 12-08-2023
New Orleans trades:
Clint Capela $9.4M expiring (NOP pays for his full salary to make cap neutral for Indiana)
Indiana trades:
Atlanta ‘24 1st
James Nnaji ($0.8M til ‘26)
Getting some assets for an expiring contract. Hoping Nnaji becomes mini-Capela.

Pacers confirm. Can never have too many centers and pairing Clint with Zubac should make me competitive in blocks each week. Thanks to the Pels for the trade discussions.

Trade Analysis:
-Capela is considered a Top 125 dynasty asset.
-ATL 1st is projected to be 1.25
-Nnaji is a Top 275 dynasty asset
Pacers obviously gunning it for a title. Pelicans perhaps looking to re-tool if not rebuild. Capela is the 74th ranked player in Fantrax this season and appears to be well in front of Okongwu in the Hawks rotation. His contract is expiring and would likely be around $8m to extend next season. It's a solid value but it's unclear if the Pacers would be able to afford it at this point so there is a possibility this is a rental for them.
Pels get a late 1st plus Nnaji who was selected 2.2 in our draft. He was expected to be a project so I think his stock is still worth an early 2nd. I really don't see a scenario where Capela goes for more than this.
Earlier in 2023 in KTR, Capela was traded for a late 1st and Day'Ron Sharpe.
Given these facts, I think IND got good value but the return was fair. It's clearly not a trade that should be vetoed.
