Pelicans center Alexis Ajinca says he’d welcome a trade if it resulted in more playing time.

When Ajinca spoke in New Orleans’ locker room before Monday night’s game against Phoenix, he had not played in 11 straight games and had played only once — for three minutes — in the previous 19 contests.

“I don’t care where I’m going, as long as I’m playing,” said the 29-year-old Ajinca, who is in the second season of a four-year, $20.2 million contract with New Orleans.
