The New York Knicks have made attempts to trade for New Orleans Pelicans center Yves Missi, but the Pelicans are not interested in moving him, according to reporting from multiple outlets. The Knicks’ interest is tied to their search for a replacement for Mitchell Robinson, with New Orleans positioned as a potential destination for that need. In the accounts, the Pelicans’ response is described as a rejection of the Knicks’ offers, indicating that New Orleans is either unwilling to negotiate a trade for Missi or is demanding terms the Knicks are not willing to meet. The reporting also frames the talks as unsuccessful thus far rather than as an agreement in progress. Overall, both sources describe a stalled effort: the Knicks explore trade options for Missi, while the Pelicans hold firm. No details are provided in the excerpts about the specific trade packages, the timing of the discussions, or whether any revised talks are planned.
