Anyone have any information on the specifications of the draft pick that Phoenix traded to San Antonio for the rights to Barbosa?

Specifically, could San Antonio get Phoenix's first round pick in this year's draft?

I'm just curious.

No.

At best the Spurs could get a 20+ pick from the Suns in the next years.

At some point the protection will be very limited but I am pretty sure the Suns have an option to send San Antonio any first rounder.

AFAIK, the only details on the pick released to the public were "a future first round pick", no protection details.. could be wrong though.

There were details and it is heavily protected. -> It will be a late first round pick.

Thanks for the input.

I assumed that the pick was protected, but wanted to see if there was any "local" information as to specifics.
