Zion has been great his last seven games, but the six before that weren’t so good. Shai might be great, but trade value isn’t just play - it’s overall value to the team, which includes marketing. So I’m going with

V: Durant

Vote Zion.

Nominate Jaylen Brown.

I really think people are undervaluing how desired 3+D wings are in the league. There's a reason teams basically never trade them away, and why you always see people posting on this board seeking them out, only to get shot down. Throw in the fact Brown is actually a guy who's proven he can be a legitimate secondary star on a championship-caliber team as well, and he's only 26, and I gotta go with him. I know he's a free agent in 2024 so that hurts his case, but eh. There are issues with the remaining guys being voted for as well. LeBron is old and making a ton of money. KAT is extremely difficult to fit into the context of a very good team imo. Trae is always going to be one of the very worst defenders in the league. Haliburton's numbers look nice, but this is his 4th year now with both a negative plus/minus and on-off, so that's at least a little concerning. The offensively-slanted star PG is also a much more easily replaceable archetype than the 20+ ppg wing scorer who's a high-volume 3P shooter and a good defender.
