The Portland Trail Blazers also traded the 40th pick, according to multiple reports.
PORTLAND, Ore. — After the Portland Trail Blazers added size and defense on the first day of the 2024 NBA Draft, the Blazers prioritized future assets on Day 2, trading both of their second-round picks on Thursday, sending the 34th pick to the New York Knicks for three future second-round picks and the 40th pick to the Oklahoma City Thunder.
Before the draft started on Wednesday, the Blazers agreed to a trade for Washington Wizards 6-foot-9 forward Deni Avdija, and then followed that up by drafting 7-3 UConn center Donovan Clingan with the seventh overall pick.
On Thursday, the Blazers traded the 34th pick to the Knicks, who selected Marquette point guard Tyler Kolek. In exchange, Portland received three second-round picks from New York, according to Jake Fischer of Yahoo Sports, in 2027, 2029 and 2030. Here are the details, according to Fischer:
- 2027: from Minnesota Timberwolves (via Knicks)
- 2029: least favorable of Indiana Pacers and Washington Wizards (via Knicks)
- 2030: from New York Knicks
Fischer also reported that the Blazers traded the 40th pick to the Oklahoma City Thunder (who traded it to the Knicks who then traded it to the Phoenix Suns). The Blazers may have received the 52nd pick in the trade, but the exact terms of the deal have not yet been reported.
Clingan joined ESPN’s draft show during the second round and said he’ll arrive in Portland on Friday.
This is a developing story and will be updated throughout the draft.
