I was responding to your question about mid-lottery pick value as that is the question you asked in the post I was responding to.

Yeah, I know.  My response was speaking to that -- I don't think Ingram is likely to have greater value than a middle-lottery pick (i.e. 5-12) because he's in his third season and still looks far from being a valuable role player, let alone a star.

I don't think Jaylen would be valued higher than a mid-lottery pick, either, but it seems to me that there's more reason to think a team would prefer Jaylen than that they'd want Ingram.

I'm as biased as any Celtic fan, but feel Ingram has more trade value than Brown. He is a little younger, has better shot, taller, lankier and probably most are projecting that he will eventually fill out, get stronger, and his upside is a lot higher than Brown.  I like Jaylen, but his inconsistency is concerning, and is not doing us any favors as a trade asset, never mind as a member of the Celtics.

He is averaging 16 ppg as a 3rd option on a good team.  I'm not sure how that doesn't strike you as a valuable role player.  Last year his last 20 games or so, he was playing pretty darn good as well and clearly showed star potential (and the Lakers were actually winning in those games).  Ingram has suffered some in trying to fit in with James, a guy that plays his position, is ball dominant, and better than him, but Ingram has started to find his role a bit the last few weeks. 

As I said, I think Brown is more likely to hit his ceiling, but Ingram has a higher ceiling.
