In a Vacuum 10th Overall = Which Player?

[NYG]

Typically unless a superstar requests a trade pre-draft... we don't see picks traded for players in the earlier portion of the draft. So just gauging for pick 10 in a vacuum (ignoring it belongs to Houston and their specific needs)... which player would carry that value that is on the trade market and available for a pick in return?

[UnbelievablyRAW]

Draft kinda falls off after 8, although 9-14 is all the same tier on my board. I think you could get Coby White for 10 straight up but idk if Bulls fans disagree. Feels like they aren't trying to resign him, but he's still good as a scoring guard.

Coby White(expiring contract, but showed that he can be a true 3rd option on a very good team)
Walker Kessler
Herb Jones
Josh Hart
Jaden Ivery(played only 30 games due to injury, but has shown flashes of potential)
Cam Johnson(may be a little high, but not far off)
Kevin Durant(may be a little low, but I don't see teams assigning a ton of value to a old Kevin Durant)
Andrew Nembhard
Alex Caruso

Herb Jones? Shaedon Sharpe if Portland not ready to commit? A Houston forward if they want to start the rookie clock over..Eason or Smith---Houston can trade with themselves but someone around that range? Lauri Markk?

Hmmm... is there a 10 to NOP... Herb Jones to Phoenix... KD to Houston kind of deal that could be leveled out in value for everyone?

Herb Jones would be a huge get for the Suns due the amount of defense he brings when healthy and the Suns are known to have major point of attack issues. However the Suns need a starting level Center and I wonder if the Suns are focus more on that than perimeter defense. There have been rumours that the Nets might end up being the 3rd team in a Kevin Durant that sends Nic Claxton to the Suns depending on the Nets asking price for him.

??? to the Nets
Herb and Claxton to the Suns
KD to the Rockets
10 to the Pelicans

[NYG]

FVV and Whitmore to Brooklyn
KD to Houston
Landale and 10 to New Orleans
Jones and Claxton to Phoenix

Hou could use a scorer like Coby-sounds good to me

Coby White for Jock Landale, Aaron Holiday and 10th Overall?

Looking at some of the names being mentioned I’ll throw out Payton Pritchard.
I don’t think he has top 10 value in this draft but I do think he has stronger value than a lot of the guys mentioned in the thread.

To me, the #10 pick is worth a good fitting fifth starter on a reasonable contract.

Still a starter, but fifth starters are also replaceable in Free Agency,
