The Oklahoma City Thunder are shopping 22-year-old forward Ousmane Dieng, attaching his $6.6 million expiring contract and a future first-round pick in hopes of adding a veteran player.
The Oklahoma City Thunder are exploring the trade market for former lottery pick Ousmane Dieng, according to Evan Sidery of Forbes.
Per the report, Oklahoma City is willing to shop Dieng's $6.6 million expiring contract, along with a future first-round pick, to acquire a veteran.
Still just 22 years old, Dieng remains an intriguing upside option for teams in a rebuilding phase.
This season, the French forward is averaging 4.4 points and 1.8 rebounds across 17 games, playing 12.5 minutes per contest.
Now in his fourth NBA season, Dieng has appeared in only 126 total games, spending time between the NBA and the G League.
Dieng was selected 11th overall in the 2022 NBA Draft by the New York Knicks before being traded to the Thunder on draft night.
He was also part of Oklahoma City's NBA championship team during the 2024–25 season.
