The Pelicans are going through that scenario right now. Best player they've drafted in their history and when healthy, at least one of the 5 to 10 best players in the league. And even the best potential deals that they could make for him won't get them nearly as much as they'd be giving up. Which is why they're hoping and praying that a Zion is amazing enough to make Davis want to stay.

With the Blazers you've got the best player in 35 years now with play-off success who wants to stick around forever. You don't gamble with that.
