[Woj] OKC trades #16 to HOU for two future 1sts (?)

[GreekAlex]

Details on those picks:

DET's pick: protected 1-16 in 2022, 1-18 in 2023, 1-18 in 2024, 1-15 in 2025, 1-11 in 2026, 1-9 in 2027, otherwise 2027 2nd
WAS's pick: protected 1-14 in 2023, 1-12 in 2024, 1-10 in 2025, 1-8 in 2026, otherwise 2026 and 2027 2nds

All this assumes Houston hasn't protected them further.

As a Detroit fan, I wonder which year is best for us to convey the pick and be without a 1st.

2028 so you can get the next Cade!

Fine with the value, torn on the pick. Extremely skilled and the track record of guys as young as him doing what he did is very, very good, but bigs who aren't good defensively worry me

I thought you could only add protections to unprotected picks from other teams but maybe I'm misremembering?
