For New Orleans Pelicans, Buyout Option Means Trouble Trading J.J. Redick

Teams that have an interest in Redick do not feel pressure to make an offer for a 36-year-old guard who was a defensive liability even when he was 10 years younger, and who is mired in a season in which he is shooting 29.8% from the 3-point line. The feeling is that Redick could be bought out.
