Thunder Deal Jerami Grant To Denver

The Oklahoma City Thunder are continuing to stockpile draft picks, dealing forward Jerami Grant to the Denver Nuggets for a 2020 first-rounder.

The move saves OKC $39 million in salary and luxury tax payments and adds to the bounty of draft picks acquired in last week's Paul George trade.

The Thunder are now sitting on six future first-round selections and two pick swaps with the Clippers - and that stockpile might grow even bigger if the rumors about the team trading Russell Westbrook are true.
