Sixers Trade No. 38 Pick Khyri Thomas to Pistons; No. 39 Isaac Bonga Reportedly to Lakers

Updated: Friday, 2:30 a.m.

The Sixers opened up their crop of second-round picks by opting for another trade.

The Sixers drafted Creighton guard Khyri Thomas and traded him to the Detroit Pistons for two future second-round picks.

They followed that up by selecting Isaac Bonga, a small forward from Germany, with the No. 39 choice. However, that pick had already agreed to be dealt to the Los Angeles Lakers on Wednesday in a transaction that netted the Sixers a 2019 second-round pick and cash, per ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski (see story).

"You go to 38 and we traded it. We got two seconds from Detroit," Sixers head coach and interim general manager Brett Brown said. "You go to 39 and with Isaac, I can't really comment on that until the end of the moratorium. You can read into that as you should."

The Sixers also traded picks Nos. 56 and 60 to the Mavericks for the 54th selection, which ended up being SMU guard Shake Milton (6-6/207) (see story).
