Trade Analysis

Golden State received some value, but rights to Edgar Lacy produced the stronger overall return for the counterpart. Golden State received high draft pick (not exercised?) and sent rights to Edgar Lacy. The counterpart captured somewhat more durable value, although Golden State's return was not without merit. The F Warriors grade reflects realized production, role, timing and downstream asset value; the D the other team grade measures what Los Angeles Lakers obtained from the same transaction. The judgment is retrospective and does not assume that every later draft outcome was predictable on the trade date.
