Part of me doesn't want to hold on to Precious.
I think he is our next OG
I agree he is a late bloomer but maybe this is a deal that Ainge would bite with Precious as someone he can consider as part of his building block to his team.

25 years old 6’9”-6’11” Lauri Markannen is a decent get
VanVleet/ Birch/ Precious
for
Markannen and Olynyk
If Utah moves Markannen it will be for picks and prospects, so only Precious would be of any interest to them in your trade proposal. Van Vleet is the exact opposite of what Utah would want. Expensive older player. Only contenders would be interested in Fred.
Markannen is only 25 I think Utah just builds around him.
If I'm Utah I keep Markannen, Sexton, Vanderbilt, Kessler, and NAW. Everyone else is highly available.

That is what I said, Precious is most likely their main target with ceiling unknown and could be a part of their rebuilding program. VanVleet is a potential free agent so that is a moot point situation.
But I agree, additional picks from Masai would convince Ainge
