The Detroit Pistons face the Memphis Grizzlies tonight, aka the team it probably makes the most sense to model a rebuild around. After years of being sick of topping out at mediocre, the Grizz hit the reset button in 2017-18, finishing with 22 wins.
They subsequently added Jaren Jackson Jr and Ja Morant in consecutive drafts, sold off veterans and, perhaps more importantly, really hit on grabbing young players and other draft picks. Those include Grayson Allen, Brandon Clarke, Xavier Tillman and Desmond Bane.
