1st round pick

I dont see why OKC would want to use both of their first rounders this year. Given their depth and roster it would be beneficial for them to keep the draft capital.

Seemingly we could trade them a future first, say top three protected, and a pick swap down the line; hence, increasing their capital and probably moving up in the draft twice


if we were to get pick 12 from them, it's probable, objectively speaking, they could wind up with two picks in future drafts higher than that one

although I think we would do better than that, the consensus wouldn't agree. it would be like betting on ourselves again
