Lottery pick for lottery pick

Tier 1 draft picks, in no particular other, Cunningham, Suggs, Mobley, Green, and Kuminga.

Tier 2 draft picks, in no particular order, Barnes, Jalen Johnson, Book night, Springer, Keon Johnson, Moody, and Zaire Williams.

What if the Dubs were able to get the Wolves pick,which was top three protected, and if the Thunder get the 6th and 11th. Would the Thunder consider trading both their picks to the Dubs and if the Dubs also trade the 18th pick?

All based on Tankathon Sim Lottery

Thunder selects with the fourth pick, Jonathan Kuminga and the 18th they select Jared Butler.
Kuminga is the type of athlete that only comes a long every few years. He’s absolutely explosive off the floor and makes the rim look like a play-thing. He’s got a rock solid frame with elite quick-twitch athleticism. Butler's NBA compares to a younger George Hill, steady and reliable.

Dubs select Keon Johnson sixth and with the eleventh pick is Corey Kispert.
Keon is finding a great rhythm and really emerging as the season goes on. He’s an elite athlete, even by NBA standards, with huge two-way upside. Kispert lives behind the 3pt line and has a great shooting stroke and is rounding out the rest of his game.

i wouldn't, the difference here is that the 4/5 pick is a different tier from the 6th pick, it's the difference between guys like Mobley, Kuminga or Green and the next tier whoever you have there

I wouldn't trade a top 5 pick except for another top 5 pick or an established All Star.

IMO this is the type of year to not get cute and trade down. They should pick anyone from the top 5. (Cade, Snuggs, Green, Mobley or Kuminga.
