9. Jared Dudley

(Trade Value: B-)

At this point in his career, Jared Dudley is a one trick pony, but he still does that one trick exceptionally well. Duds can still shoot the lights out from deep and if a team desperately wants to add a veteran component to their roster who can be a deadeye from three-point range, Jared Dudley is on many team’s shortlists. Because of this, he can potentially bring value in return should Phoenix look to unload his contract. Although he probably wouldn’t be traded during this offseason, come February next year and if teams like the Cleveland Cavaliers, Boston Celtics, or Houston Rockets needs an additional three-point shooter, they could throw a first round pick at Phoenix to help bolster their playoff depth. Knowing that those teams will all finish near the bottom of the draft based on the very good regular season standings will lessen the value of that pick, but it will still be a valuable asset.
