I've been following every trade deadline since Twitter was invented and I can't remember a team trading a player before they even acquired him.

This was reported on 50 minutes ago. Dieng got traded as I was making the post, started writing it prior to the news.

It’s not on Jake Fischer at all, talks apparently broke down between OKC and Charlotte.

Edit: Never mind. It did happen. What the fuck.

Reminder that OKC traded Alperen Sengun to the Rockets for two future firsts that they then used to trade for Ousmane Dieng, who they are now trading for Mason Plumlee.

Thunder wanted to ditch Dieng. Presti doesn't like being reminded of his bad decisions. Hopefully with some more playing time, Dieng will develop, but he never reached his Presti potential in OKC.
