Can OKC Thunder GM Sam Presti strike lightning twice via draft picks?

2020 Draft Picks:

First Round Picks:

Denver Nuggets first-round draft pick protected 1 through 10. If not conveyed in 2020, the same restrictions apply in 2021 and 2022 and if still not conveyed then in 2022 the Nuggets would owe the Thunder their 2023 and 2024 second-round pick. Given the Nuggets look to be positioned well to return to the playoffs the pick is likely to be exercised this coming summer.

OKC Thunder will also have their own first-round pick. However, there is a chance they could lose that pick if it lands outside the top 20. In that event, their pick would be conveyed to the Philadelphia 76ers. Assuming the pick will likely fall in the expected protected range it means the Thunder will send their 2022 and 2023 second-round picks to the 76ers.

Second Round Picks:

OKC Thunder own second-round pick.

Chicago Bulls 2020 second-round pick protected 31 through 55. This pick should fall within the protected range unless the Bulls finish in the top five this coming season which means it’s unlikely to be conveyed.

What’s likely to happen:

Of the potential two picks in each of the first round and second round all but the Bulls second-round pick is likely to be available.
