So then, outside of the consensus top 3, is there anyone else worth trading up for? Anyone else have potential superstar/all star?

Of course lots have a chance.. but I'm not that high on anyone outside the top 3 to make any major rebuild-type moves.
 
Also I wanted to address the prejudice against international prospects displayed perfectly in some posts in the last several pages... I am not blaming you for it, because even US national media engages in it and perpetuates it. Jonathan Givony from DraftExpress.com a year or so ago shared that they've done studies and analysis about the success of international prospects... he pretty much said that the rhetoric about the "bustiness" of European prospects is not supported by any data and that drafting an international prospects in the first round is the best bet you have - in other words American prospects bust more often than international prospects.

No worries. I don't mind you having an opinion... I just wanted to give some information that a lot of people don't seem to have, or are acting like they do not have. If you find it useful, you are welcome, if not... oh well... it's me that wasted a minute sharing it... no biggie...

Wouldn't it be funny if we do draft Porzingis... we could become the most internationally diverse team in the NBA:

Gobert - France
Porzingis - Lavia
Hayward - USA (white)
Burks - USA (black)
Exum - Australia
