Shams Charania: First pick in the NBA G League draft: Greensboro selects Admiral Schofield at No. 1, sources tell @The Athletic @Stadium.
The Washington Wizards announced today that they have acquired the draft rights to Cassius Winston (53rd overall pick out of Michigan State) and Memphis’ 2024 second round pick (which was owned by Oklahoma City) from the Thunder in exchange for the rights to Vit Krejci (37th overall pick) and Admiral Schofield.
Winston, a 6-1, 205-pound guard, averaged 18.6 points and 5.9 assists per game as a senior and 18.8 points and 7.5 assists per game as a junior at Michigan State to earn All-America Second Team honors in both seasons, All-Big Ten honors as a senior and Big Ten Player of the Year honors as a junior. He is one of four players in NCAA D-I history to record at least 1,900 points and 850 assists and finished his career with 894 assists, the most in Big Ten and Michigan State history, while leading the Spartans to the 2019 Final Four.
