2016 NBA Rookie Ladder: Who Has The Most Trade Value?

There isn’t a more dominant player in this draft class than Towns. He’s a center with shooting range out to the three-point line and post moves that will make you think you’re watching one of the greats from back in the day.
Currently averaging 16.6 points, 9.9 rebounds and 1.8 blocks per game all while maintaining a 22.70 PER, Towns is the real deal and a star already. Before this season it looked like Andrew Wiggins was the future alpha dog on the Timberwolves, but times have changed and that’s Towns’ spot to lose now.
