Trade Analysis

Golden State's return of cash fell well short of the long-term value surrendered in Wayne Hightower. Golden State received cash and sent Wayne Hightower. The long-term value clearly favored the counterpart. The F Warriors grade reflects realized production, role, timing and downstream asset value; the B- the other team grade measures what Washington Wizards obtained from the same transaction. The judgment is retrospective and does not assume that every later draft outcome was predictable on the trade date.
