I think it's obvious that the top 5 teams will be unlikely to trade out of the lottery, considering their desperate need for talent and the expected talent at the top of this draft. That being said, of the remaining 8 teams could be convinced to trade their picks with any number of medium-value assets that the Cs have. Who would actually want to trade their pick though?

I voted for the Clippers, given their obvious double picks at 12 and 13. Any asset can be had here in order to grab one of the young bigs available: Wendell Carter, Robert Williams, Mitchell Robinson, Jonhtay Porter especially. Would be good insurance for considering to replace Monroe if he leaves.
