Why is everyone so obsessed with improving the trade value of our players?
If Graham improves and suddenly becomes the 40% 3 point shooter people THINK he is then we need him and won't be trading him. He has NEVER shot close to that and I don't think he will get there but if he does it would be dumb to trade him.
If Hayes gets better and can handle the 5 we are sure as hell not going to trade him, if he can replace JV in a couple of years it doesn't make any sense to trade him. He is an athletic freak and probably and I could see him and Zion side by side both playing a hybrid 4/5 role every night.
I think the trajectory for both is not that good though. I think Graham will be typical Graham shooting +/-35% and horrible on Defense all while making poor decisions and I think Hayes may become a cap casualty if he doesn't develop into a starting 5. He just wouldn't fit with the Pels starting group and would cost to much money as a back up.

B/c he’s small, we have a bunch of other small guards that weren’t here when we signed him and outside of CJ, he’s making the most. And I hate to see us have to give up an asset to move a player we just gave up #15 for…..
Plus more mins for Jose, Lewis, and Daniels.
