San Antonio Spurs Receive: G Derrick Rose, 2023 First-Round Pick (NYK), 2023 First-Round Pick (DAL), 2025 First-Round Pick (NYK)
New York Knicks Receive: G Dejounte Murray
If the San Antonio Spurs are looking to start all the way over, this should be the deal for them.
Getting two extra cracks at the 2023 draft is huge for this franchise. That draft has the potential to be historic.
Factoring in their own (likely lottery-bound) pick, this trade boosts their odds of landing the presumptive number-one pick Victor Wembenyama. If you haven’t watched his highlights, we recommend you do yourself that favor.
Of course, it’s not a one-man draft. Scoot Henderson is the most anticipated point guard since John Wall. Dariq Whitehead, Anthony Black, and more headline a class for the ages. Picking three times in this draft could change a franchise’s fortunes indefinitely.

Otherwise, the Spurs receive a 2025 first-round pick for Murray here as well. All told, it’s a rebuilding package befitting a player of Murray’s caliber. On the other hand, the Spurs may insist on receiving some more proven production for their star.
In that event, the next deal listed here may suit them better.
