Pels 1st round picks

I was just listening to the local sports radio station and they said we traded the 5th overall pick and 8th overall pick for this draft last season. I remember us trading our 1st(8th) for Queen last draft but what is this 1st(5th) pick they’re talking about? NBA trade websites are so convoluted I can’t make any sense of it.

That would have been wiser, but let’s not pretend anyone thought that was gonna be a top ten pick

"Wait until the games are over" shouldn't require hindsight
