The Thunder have traded Isaiah Joe to the Pistons for a pair of draft picks
The Oklahoma City Thunder have some work to do after coming up short in their quest to repeat as champions this past season. With a salary cap crunch on the horizon, the Thunder’s first order of business has involved finding ways to shed some salary, which has led to key members of their rotation being thrown on the trade block.
Earlier this week, Oklahoma City reportedly traded Aaron Wiggins to the Atlanta Hawks, but it turns out that’s not the only move the team planned on making. That’s because, on Friday morning, OKC swung a deal with the Detroit Pistons that will send veteran sharpshooter Isaiah Joe to the No. 1 seed in the Eastern Conference.
