If you are just talking interest then 29 teams would have interest. Maybe 15 would seriously consider it, and maybe 7-8 could muster reasonable assets to make legitimate offers. Out of that, you would easily get 3-4 heavy, near-Gobert level trade offers. I could see 3 or more picks and a few young players and swaps even in the winning deal.
That said, I would vote for seeing where this is going. If they actually trade Lauri it tells me they had no plan other than asset accumulation for accumulation's sake. My bet is we see a consolidation trade by the trade deadline. It might make us temporarily worse. It might constitute a tanking move. But with an eye to quick improvement in the next year or 2 to keep Lauri around and build around him. I think Collins time here is limited, and he will be flipped as part of it. I could see Kessler being moved, as well as Sexton. Really the only untouchable I see is Lauri. I doubt we move any of the young guys on small contracts, so we hold onto Keyonte, who needs more minutes. Otherwise wouldn't be surprised to see anyone else moved.
No matter what though, we are going to suck for 2 more years most likely, maybe 3. Unless we all get shocked and that consolidation trade nets us an all-star to pair with Lauri. Could happen.
But I would not be in any hurry to dump Lauri.
