Yeah, it will be tough to get him. There's a few teams with a lot of picks who might not want their picks though.
He's going to be a sophomore big without impressive measurements or athletic testing, so always a chance he drops more than he should.

How many top ten draft picks (not players) were simply traded away in the last 15 years?
No idea. There was a top 10 swap in this past year's draft.
Picks get traded constantly. I dont think it's that rare of a thing to where it's unlikely. There's a lot of teams who own a ton of picks, so there will be more movement as teams try to reposition themselves or figure out they dont need all the picks they currently have.

How are we going to get him though? At this point we aren't going to get a pick. Would he be worth losing multiple garnered picks for?
Have you watched him this year compared to last year?
He's averaging a higher block rate than Taylor Hendricks did last year against better competition.
His stats have greatly improved across the board.
He's nearly doubled his assist rate while lowering his turnover percentage.
His block rate is nearly tripled from last season.
He's finishing at the rim 6% higher than last year. He's finishing in the paint 26% higher than last year.
He's increased his TS% by 7%.
He's 9% higher from 3 this year.
He's doing all this on lower usage than last year.
That's the hard part. The better he plays the harder it gets.
I can't imagine that Danny isnt in love with him though. He's Kelly Olynyk mixed with Sabonis.
