It’s been a wild summer for the Warriors’ 2024 pick, which they originally traded to the Memphis Grizzlies in 2019 to facilitate the Kevin Durant-D’Angelo Russell sign-and-trade/Andre Iguodala salary dump. Earlier this year, Boston acquired the future pick when they swapped former Defensive Player of the Year and Warriors villain Marcus Smart for Kristaps Porzingis.
