Warriors receive
Dennis Schröder
Second-round pick
Nets receive:
De’Anthony Melton
Reece Beekman
Three second-round picks
NBA insiders Jake Fischer and Marc Stein reported that Golden State and Brooklyn have agreed on a deal sending Schröder to the Bay in exchange for Melton. The reports indicate that the Warriors will not send out any first-round draft capital.
Fischer added that Golden State will include undrafted rookie Reece Beekman, who is currently on a two-way contract.
ESPN’s Shams Charania outlined the framework, reporting that Golden State will receive one second-round pick while sending three second-round picks to Brooklyn in the deal.
Melton is on an expiring contract and his salary made for a one-for-one match for Schröder’s. Because he will enter free agency in late June, Melton could theoretically rejoin Golden State as a free agent next year.
