Even with his team currently in the NBA Finals, Nuggets general manager Calvin Booth continues to look for ways to improve his team.

On Friday, the Nuggets acquired a 2024 first-round pick, the 37th pick in this year’s draft and a 2024 second-round pick from Oklahoma City in exchange for a protected 2029 first-round pick, a league source confirmed to The Denver Post.

With the 2024 first-round pick, the Nuggets are likely to explore moving up in this year’s draft, the source said. They now have two first-rounders in that draft — their own and the one acquired Friday — as well as one second-round pick.
