Would make sense if the draft included domestic players. Wes Agar is not eligible for the draft, so why are the Thunder losing a draft pick for trade?

I think it's essentially a swap of 2nd round picks? Given Thunder missed finals it'll certainly be higher than the Strikers pick.

That's even stupider. Essentially the pick is for nothing.
And this does not incentivize the better ranked teams to initiate trades

Apparently it will give them a higher pick in the second round when some internationals are still likely to be available. If Agar is surplus to requirements and it gives them a free hit at an international, it makes sense.
