TRADE: JaMychal Green + 2027 1st to OKC | #30 + two 2nds to DEN

[Chicagojk]

Very light protection for the pick. So OKC took 8 mil of bad salary and paid #30+2 SRP for lightly protected 2027 pick. Doesn't seem a great deal for Denver anymore. 

(1) Keith Smith on Twitter: "On the latest Lowe Post @ZachLowe_NBA reported the protections on the pick DEN is sending to OKC are top-5 in 2027, 2028 and 2029. That means that trade will happen in the window between the draft and free agency. Teams can't trade 2029 picks until after the 2022 draft is done." / Twitter

Yes, that is a nice haul.  The pick should be better than #30.   And there is a chance the Denver team looks much different in 4-5 years.  Nice trade.  

OKC has a lot of these picks with some kind of protections on them.  Some will not pan out, but sometimes all it takes is for one to hit jackpot for you.
