What trade value? Former 20G scorer turned into a less than 20 pts. player that doesn't do anything else to provide value to the team other than filling a roster spot.
The seasons over from a playoff perspective. How do we build for the future, if trading Crouse is an option, he needs to play and get going, might have a buyer at the TDL. If he sits, we get less value if he is traded at the TDL. BA knows he has to show case players he might trade, this doesn't help, which is why I think there is no way he gets traded at the TDL.

I think they hold on to Crouse for the entire season anyways because any offers would be so underwhelming. If there's any chance he redeems himself a bit over the remainder of the season and improves his trade value then they can get more for him in the offseason maybe. Or even be better off keeping him if he finally figures it out.

I don't see motivation to sell at rock bottom without being patient in hopes he gets better. You always want to put a rush on things and I don't think rushing on this is necessary at all. Best return is all I care about. Like you said, playoff hopes are gone for this season already anyways.

Crouse is a throw in trade piece right now, I'd guess. Used to get a bigger deal done.

Crouse might just be having an off year, maybe he has not been put in a good position to succeed, Macelli as well. I don't think either has forgotten how to play. I am not saying we should trade him now or sell low, just saying a TDL trade is off the table now with BA benching him at this time.
