[Adrian Wojnarowski] ESPN Sources: The Houston Rockets are trading G Kevin Porter Jr., and two future second-round picks to the Oklahoma City Thunder — who are waiving Porter Jr., immediately. Thunder are sending the Rockets Victor Oladipo and Jeremiah Robinson-Earl in the transaction.

I don’t like to keep beating a dead horse but genuinely how many picks does Presti have now
Oh good I was worried Presti didn’t have enough picks
The career of Kevin Porter Jr will be one of the more disappointing stories of modern NBA history
The prodigal son returns!
Immediately. Imagine getting dumped like that sheesh
VERY common Sam Presti W
Dipo got traded like 4 times this offseason
That’s one way for OKC to clear a couple roster spots
offseason defining bombshell
clippers signing porter after psychological evaluation confirmed
The “immediately” is so funny
Charlotte take notes
Oladipo was on the Thunder?!
So Hornets probably slamming that waiver claim in right away?
Wait I thought Earl was good for them?
Get ready to learn legalese buddy!
Who even knew the Thunder had Oladipo, when did that happen
KPJ you are a Charlotte Hornet!
Turn two guys you didn’t have space for anyway into two seconds is just good business
I haven’t been following his story. I saw that one charge got dropped and he pleaded not guilty to the other. Is he that untouchable?
Still waiting on Prestis endgame with all the draft capital he has stashed.
Presti just can’t help himself when picks are on the table
Hope JRE gets some traction back on his career because it quickly went from potential long term bench player to washed after that injury
I won’t complain about getting rid of two roster spot impediments and getting two second round picks, even though we are waiving money for it.
Any chance a team signs kpj? Would be a pr mess, but I imagine a team like the suns could look into it
Why waive 3 of your guys when you can do this
Hope VO finds a roster
Presti needed to cut some guys before the season started. This gets second round picks for guys who were just going to be waived anyway.
PICK$$$$
Lmao
After that horrible injury in Indiana, Oladipo should’ve taken the contract from Houston.
*Hornets have entered the chat*
The best part of this is now we can stop hearing from the KPJ defenders that acted like he was a net positive on the court ever
KPJ was about to start a 4 year, $63 mil. extension, although I believe only the first year was guaranteed. Looks like KPJ is joining this year’s “exclusive club” of blowing up your contract with bad behaviour, alongside Pat Fitzgerald, Mike Babcock, and Mel Tucker! LOL
P.S. I know the other three are head coaches but can’t seem to not notice the connection between all of them
Hold up…when the hell did Oladipo end up with OKC?
GOOD RIDDANCE.
Shit human should be behind bars, not playing basketball.
Take notes, Charlotte.
(So glad they finally ejected this clown into the sun. Never should have taken the chance coming out of Cleveland. He messed Jalen Green up.)
I think you have had enough draft picks
Presti: **I’ll tell you when I’ve had enough fucking picks, okay!**
Find someone who looks at you like the Oklahoma City Thunder looks at draft picks.
Oladipo is the kind of player that is going to show up in trivia 20 years from now and I will say, oh that dude, and then move on to discussing the new three point booster they are experimenting with on the interactive glass court
Sam Presti doing all that for second round picks lmao
Hornets got their guy!
This guy Presti is a fiend for 2nd rounders
One of these drafts is just gonna be OKC getting everyone
I love how OKC is now the fucking quote on the Statue of Liberty.
TIL Oladipo signed in OKC
Is…. is he looking healthy to play at all? I always feel so bad for dudes like him, your whole *life* is centred around being this hyperathletic superhuman and then your career ends up being defined by your lack of durability instead.
So Lakers gonna sign him huh
