Mav’s seconds including a 2028 was strategic. It allows us to trade a lightly protected 2027 first that converts to a 2028 second that we now have. The poster said LAL did something similar.

Anyone else think we made sure to get a 2028 second rounder so we could deal our 27 if needed in a trade with lottery protection or top 10 protections and if it doesn’t convey it turns into that 2028 second? The Lakers did that this year with their 27 pick being too 4 protected otherwise it turns into a second rounder. Makes me think they wanted a that option in case something comes up so we don’t have to leave ourself open to an unprotected pick
