体坛英语资讯：Thunder trade Jerami Grant to Nuggets for draft pick

WASHINGTON, July 8 -- Denver Nuggets obtained power forward Jerami Grant from the Oklahoma City Thunder by giving away another first-round pick on Monday.

It's an additional first-round selection for the Thunder, who are in line for at least four more assuming the blockbuster deal that sends Paul George to the Los Angeles Clippers goes through. It would also give Oklahoma City the rights to as many as 13 first-round picks over the next seven drafts.

The 6-foot-9, 220-pound Grant is coming off a breakout season that saw him set career highs in points (13.6) and rebounds (5.2). He shot 49.7 percent from the field and 39.2 percent from 3-point range. On the defensive end, he displayed his versatility by blocking 100 shots and recording 61 steals.

The Nuggets are coming off a 54-28 season that earned them the No. 2 seed in the West behind All-Star big man Nikola Jokic. They haven't made any major splashes this offseason.
