The Warriors will receive three second-round picks (a 2020 second-round pick via Dallas, a 2021 second-round pick via Denver, and a 2022 second-round pick via Toronto) from the Sixers in the deal.
Both Burks and Robinson III have capitalized on increased opportunities with the Warriors this season to post career-high stats — 16.1 points and 3.1 assists for Burks, 12.9 points and 4.7 rebounds for Robinson III.
The two veterans are above-average shooters who should help bolster the Sixers’ bench as they fight for playoff positioning. Philadelphia currently sits in the No. 6 seed in the East standings after a rough stretch of play in January.
