Trade Analysis
Cincinnati ultimately received more value. Dave Newmark played 64 games for Atlanta in 1969-70 but filled a modest role and produced 0.4 win shares before leaving the NBA after the season. Wally Anderzunas gave Cincinnati 44 games that year, and the 1972 third-round pick became Ron Riley. Riley immediately averaged 8.4 points and 6.9 rebounds in 74 games as a rookie and played 86 games across two seasons for the Kings franchise. The pick outcome gives Cincinnati a clear retrospective edge.
