The Utah Jazz owe the Oklahoma City Thunder their 2025 first-round draft pick, which is top-10 protected. This pick was part of a trade in 2021 where the Jazz sent Derrick Favors to the Thunder in exchange for a future second-round pick. The protection on the pick will become top-8 protected in 2026, and if it doesn't convey by then, Utah will owe OKC their 2028 second-round pick.

I dont know if this an AI answer or whether you copy pasted this from some article, but this is 100% false information. Our 2028 2nd rounder belongs to OKC regardless and it was traded to them together with Miye Oni for cash considerations in 2022. There is an official press release about that trade from both OKC and from us that verifies this.

According to Deseret article from last June (linked below) and Fanspo future draft pick listings the first rounder we owe to OKC just extuinguishes if it hits protections in 2026 as well. I cannot find any source that claims it converts to anything.

Never seen this site before, so I can't vouch for it, but it does say converts to 2028 2nd rounder: https://www.salaryswish.com/trades/players/derrick-favors

But yeah, it seems to be the only one saying that that I can find.

I guess its possible that this option was originally in the deal but it was changed when we made the Miye Oni trade.

I really wish NBA would provide an official source for future draft rights and any conditions attached to them.

2026 first round draft pick to Oklahoma City
Utah's 2026 1st round pick to Oklahoma City protected for selections 1-8 (if this pick falls within its protected range and is therefore not conveyed, then Utah's obligation to Oklahoma City will be extinguished) [Oklahoma City-Utah, 7/30/2021; Oklahoma City-Utah, 1/4/2022]

This is what realgm.com says (and you, which I also thought was the case). I've always found their future draft pick page (https://basketball.realgm.com/nba/draft/future_drafts/detailed) to be very good and accurate.

I think the second date there at the end is the Miye Oni trade date. That supports the conversion was in the original trade but was later removed from it.

I do sometimes use that page but their content layout and page design are tragic (albeit I now notice they have added mobile friendly UI support).
