Thunder acquire Daniel Theis from Pelicans

The Oklahoma City Thunder have acquired veteran center Daniel Theis from the New Orleans Pelicans, according to ESPN’s Shams Charania. In addition to Theis, the Thunder received a 2031 second-round draft pick, while the Pelicans received cash considerations. 

Trade Details:

  • Oklahoma City Thunder Receive:
    • Daniel Theis
    • 2031 second-round draft pick
  • New Orleans Pelicans Receive:
    • Cash considerations

ANALYSIS: Daniel Theis, 32, has appeared in 38 games this season, averaging 4.3 points, 4.3 rebounds, and 1.6 assists in 16.3 minutes per game. His addition provides an insurance big and another proven veteran at center position for the Thunder, who are currently awaiting the return of Chet Holmgren from injury. They now have Isaiah Hartenstein, Jaylin Williams, and Theis in their frontcourt.

This move aligns with the Thunder's strategy to bolster their frontcourt as they continue their competitive push in the Western Conference. The Pelicans, dealing with a challenging season and recent injuries, benefit from financial flexibility through this transaction as they are now below the luxury tax by moving off Theis’ contract.
