    Did we lose next years first round pick in the minnasota trade?

    thanks in advance

    The MEM pick is, IIRC,

    top 14 protected for the next 3 years, and some dumb thing happens if Hou(now Minn) doesn't get it after 3 years, like a 2nd round pick and cash or something like that.

    Coulda been a 15-20 pick which is nice, and Memphis could fall between that range, ie get knocked out early in playoffs.

    It's a 2nd round pick if Memphis doesn't make the playoffs over the next two seasons (it's two right).

    And we also are set to inherit the Knicks's pick (with some protection) next year as well right?

    So if we don't make the playoffs next season, we'll get to keep both our first round picks?

    If we don't make the playoffs, we keep our lottery pick. If the Knicks pick isn't in the top 5, we also get their pick.
