The Nuggets, who did not have a first-round pick in Thursday's NBA draft, will acquire the 29th and 32nd overall picks in a trade with the Pacers, sources told ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski.
The Nuggets will send a 2024 first-round pick and the 40th overall pick in this year’s draft to Indiana in the deal, sources said.
The 2024 first-rounder going to the Pacers was acquired by the Nuggets in a trade with the Oklahoma City Thunder made during the NBA Finals. It will be the least favorable among the 2024 first-round picks owned by the Thunder, which includes Oklahoma City’s, the LA Clippers’, Houston’s (if 5-30) or Utah’s (if 11-30).
It seems like the Nuggets came out ahead in this one. Guess it depends on how much potential the 2024 class has.
It’s a tough 4 team gamble for the pacers. I’d say best case scenario it is 18-20 next year for them. They weren’t going to roster everyone this year so I guess they kinda had to trade out, but mediocre value in my opinion
