Cason Wallace Headed to Thunder in Draft-Night Trade

Thunder Acquire Wallace from Mavericks

Wallace, a 6'4" guard from Kentucky, was the 10th overall pick in the 2023 NBA Draft. He is known for his athleticism, defensive prowess, and ability to create for others.

The trade, which was made on draft night, saw the Thunder send a 2024 first-round pick to the Mavericks in exchange for Wallace. The Thunder also received a 2028 pick swap from the Mavericks.

The acquisition of Wallace is seen as a major coup for the Thunder, who are rebuilding after a disappointing season in which they finished with the second-worst record in the NBA.
