I don't think his value would be that high because of his impending max deal. Another team might have wanted options on that or to let him hit the open market so they could match a max offer, which would save them a year and a few million in annual raises. Since he's also had a few recent injuries, I can see another team being a little hesitant to give up more for Booker than Ayton because of the max deal plus injuries.
I can see that but on the plus side, he's locked up for almost 6 years and it's NOT a super max. But the nagging injuries have to be a concern too.
