Say the Lakers go into yard sale mode, which teams would line up for AD?

Obviously a win now team. In need of an upgrade at the 5. Have the salaries to match.

These 5 teams kind of make sense: Warriors, Toronto, Atlanta, Brooklyn, Dallas
Atlanta couldn't get it done because they sent away too much for Murray.

All of the others could make it happen. Dallas feels right for some reason.

The Lakers starting five tonight is:

AD
Pat Beverley ('s corpse?)
Lonnie Walker
Austin Reaves
Troy Brown Jr

Yikes. And they just extended their GM for building that roster...

The Lakers won because Anthony Davis remembered that games are 48 minutes and not 24. He has been disappearing in the second half in a lot of the Lakers loses.

AD had one of those games people thought he would be having all the time at this stage ofhis career.

Obviously this version of AD with a healthy Lebron makes them at least competitive, though still not great.

But at this point it seems like AD will do this only a handful of times per season rather than regularly.

All this trade talk makes me wonder what players, in what order (roughly) would have the biggest trade value, when you factor in age, talent, performance, and current contract (and contract status).
