REPORT: Dakari Johnson inks new deal with Oklahoma City

July 20, 2017

According to reports, Dakari Johnson has signed a two-year, guaranteed deal with the Thunder.

Johnson, 21, was a second-round pick by the Thunder in 2015 and has spent his career so far in the Development League.

Last season, he was named to the NBA D-League All-Star Game. His wingspan and height could mixed with his development over the past two years are something the Thunder like.

This signing does put the team at 16 active players, so there may be another move to take it down to 15 in the coming days.

The story was first reported by Shams of the Vertical.
