OKC Thunder: Free Agency and 2020 offseason trade tracker
Follow all the moves of the OKC Thunder and all 30 teams via our Free Agency, Draft and Trade Tracker
With the NBA season set to tip-off on December 22nd, the window for the OKC Thunder and peers 2020 offseason is in a tight vacuum. As such the draft and free agency were only separated by two days. And, with trade restrictions only lifted this past week it’s created a whirlwind of activity.
The OKC Thunder have been one of the most active teams and are likely to continue this seemingly frantic activity as head man Sam Presti moves all the pieces on the board.
The initial trades Presti made featured the clubs’ most coveted talent Chris Paul moving to the Suns via a blockbuster trade. Sixth Man finalist Dennis Schroder was the first announced trade of the offseason as the Lakers jumped on adding the Thunder guard.
Other players exiting include specialists like Abdel Nader and Terrance Ferguson along with leaders and fan favorites like Steven Adams. In addition, several trades feature players who were part of the initial deals being flipped and sent right back out the door.

Free agents Danilo Gallinari and Nerlens Noel have exited for new destinations leaving only Andre Roberson as a potential re-signee. Before a decision of that nature could be made the Thunder would have to clear a roster spot since more players have been coming in than going out.
The expectation is a number of these players will be waived, but there are other viable trade assets the front office is actively shopping like veterans George Hill, Trevor Ariza, and Al Horford. The latter likely not generating interest – – at least not this year.
