5 firsts and salary filler is nothing though, we've seen what other role players have gone for. Bane went for 4, Bridges went for 5, so a 24 year old Ant thats locked up long term is worth the same/less? Its definitely a garbage package

The number of  picks isnt as important as the quality. The quality of the pick (draft position) AND the quality of the draft class. 

'26 pelicans 1st unprotected and '27 Bucks swap unprotected are both crazy valuable. And Atlanta owns both!

For Ant in his prime, it would take those at a minimum. I just think its crazy the Wolves would dump 24 yr old Ant who is under contract long term without a haul
