I think you're catching on to the reality of next year's draft. I think there are only going to be a few guys who are genuine stars. I see it in Towns and possibly Okafor and Mudiay. I'm talking true star talent though, not just borderline star talent (think Caron Butler in his Washington days).
Its hard to find those guys in any draft though. I think Embiid is the only guy from last year's draft who becomes that superstar. Lavine could be that due to his skill set. True stars are very few.
Alexander isn't going to be a superstar in my opinion. In the Sixers case, you have a chance to cash in if you are able to draft Towns. Go big, or go home. You've done it the past two years (Noel and Embiid). If you can't, then I'd go for fit-Hezonja.
