Denver owes 2 1sts to OKC(2027 and 2029).. what kind of assets could they get if they made those picks unprotected? Could they get back two late 1sts or some 2nd rounders? Denver has a pretty dry cupboard, has to replenish it.

I would expect little to nothing. the 1sts are only top 5 protected, and at least the 2027 one will almost certainly not fall into protections unless things completely fall apart and Jokic leaves in 2 years. I'd be surprised with more than 2-3 2nds
