Just saw some more details on the trade. 

Pelicans not only get the #4 pick this year, but the Lakers unprotected 1st rounder in 2024 and a protected 1st rounder in 2021. They will also have the right to swap 1st rounders (unprotected) in 2023 and 2025.  

Seems to explain why they didn’t make the deal with the Knicks. That’s a lot of draft capital.   Assuming LeBron doesn’t play until he’s 45 those Laker picks and swaps could be very valuable in the future.
