Early reports showed the Oklahoma City Thunder were set to get a first-round pick from the Golden State Warriors for Kelly Oubre Jr.
The Thunder stretched that into two picks. Oklahoma City and Golden State finalized the trade Sunday, and the Thunder will receive a first-round pick from the Warriors and a Denver Nuggets second-round pick that belonged to the Warriors in exchange for the wing.
The first-round pick, according to Anthony Slater, is top-20 protected.
Oklahoma City has extended this Chris Paul trade out over a full week. After acquiring Oubre, Ricky Rubio, Ty Jerome and Jalen Lecque from the Phoenix Suns for the star guard and Abdel Nader, the Thunder only have Jerome and Lecque left. Oubre and Rubio have been flipped to teams looking to make a playoff chase, largely for more draft capital.
The tank continues for the Thunder, who are flushed with draft assets over the upcoming half-decade.
