Some recent examples:
- #1 pick to the Pelicans after trading AD to the Lakers.
- #1 pick to the Mavericks after trading Luka to the Lakers.
- #2 pick to the Spurs, so that Wemby vs SGA can be a storyline.
- #3 pick to the 76ers, because Philly is an old storied franchise that needs to be kept relevant after Ben Simmons didn't work out, and with Joel Embiid falling off lately, and with them getting themselves into a real pickle by signing Paul George to that contract.
