The Oklahoma City Thunder traded for Daniel Theis, adding depth as Chet Holmgren recovers from injury.

The Oklahoma City Thunder have traded for center Daniel Theis from the New Orleans Pelicans, acquiring a player to bolster their frontcourt depth while Chet Holmgren recovers from injury. The 32-year-old Theis averages 4.3 points and rebounds in 38 games this season. The Pelicans, aiming to stay under the luxury tax threshold, sent Theis' expiring $2.1 million contract and a 2031 second-round draft pick to the Thunder. This move helps both teams financially while providing the Thunder with additional center depth.
