I'll go ahead and remove Randle and Markkanen cause they're PFs.
Looking at that list, unless they are old (Lopez/Vucevic) or have injury concearns (Porzingis, Williams III), all of them have higher value than Ayton. We're going for Ayton cause he's a distressed asset that probably needs a fresh start.
I'll be ok if we have our new center for a drop down in the draft (no further then say #21) or for expirings, which leaves:
Nurkic, Capela, Ayton as the ones I could see available for that price.
If we want a better piece than that, we probably would have to include #10 and get no pick in return (maybe a second?), which I'd be against.

We just paid a whole lot of money to a guy that went 9-29 (31%) on FG and 3-20 (15%) 3-pt% in both our win or go home elimination games last couple of playoffs. SMH
