  Jeff Binion
58 3-11 Hawks   Bobby Parks
59 3-12 Suns   Murray Jarman
60 3-13 Sonics

> Cavaliers

 

Received 1979 second round pick (possibly #65-Bill Laimbeer? (third round)), second round pick (possibly 1984 #60-Leonard Mitchell? (third round)) from Sonics on 1978-09-06 as compensation for Sonics signing of free agent Dick Snyder.

 

The Sonics media guide says that the Cavaliers received two second round picks (one in 1979 and the other in an unspecified year) as compensation when Snyder signed with the Sonics in 1978, but this is a third round pick. Maybe they actually received two third round picks? There is also a third round pick that moved from the Sonics to the Cavaliers in 1979 (#65).
