Lauri
Mitchell
Are first tier as actual guys that can positively affect a franchise.
Probably Murray is next followed by young and Ingram.
Bridges is last.
I could see Ingram being higher depending on fit.

I know the board is going to discount guy's value based on pending FA or extensions, but before any of these guys are moved, they are going to have talked through that and the team is going to have to be quite confident that they resign/extend. That may limit the pool of bidders, but whoever is trading for them will have a <wink, wink> agreement in place even if it's technically not allowed.

Trae (best player - manageable contract


Bridges (good player - good contract)

Lauri (great player, but expiring, limits value tremendously)


Murray (above average player - great contract)



Ingram (worst of the group - bad contract situation)

This might well be true. But until the deal is formally signed its still not the same as someone actually under contract and there remains some amount of uncertainty.

Donovan Mitchell- The best player on this list. Maybe his contract situation lowers his value a little bit, but often it's overstated how much a expiring contract negatively effects a players value.

Trae Young - Not a fan of his at all, but he's locked to a long term reasonable contract.

Lauri Markkanen- One of the better 3pt shooting power forwards in the NBA. The only negative is his contract status, to go along with his poor defense.

Brandon Ingram - A decrease in production from last year and his uncertain contract status is going to hurt his value a decent bit.

Dejounte Murray - His value is rising for sure due to his late season play, but how much teams will take that into consideration considering the Hawks has quite disappointing this season.

Mikal Bridges - Getting very clear that he's just a 3rd option on good to great team. The Nets might have missed out on the chance of getting maximum value for him.

I will say that this is the third straight just horrible postseason for Donovan Mitchell so people should take that into account a little.

Obviously he's injured for this one, but that isn't great either.
