With the whole season in flux, this also will affect draft timing and depending on if the season returns and how it plays out where teams pick. For the OKC Thunder, these decisions are vitally important to their draft this summer.
The Thunder owes the 76ers their first-round pick if they finish 10th or higher. At the time of the suspension, OKC ranked ninth. Therefore, if the season resumes and teams jump right into the playoffs or if games are played and OKC doesn’t drop to 11th they’ll have to convey that pick to Philadelphia.
The Thunder will still pick in the first round by virtue of the first-round draft pick the Nuggets sent in the trade for Jerami Grant.
