The Brooklyn Nets have agreed to a deal for Houston Rockets star and former MVP James Harden, according to sources familiar with the deal.
The deal also includes Cleveland and Indiana, with the Rockets acquiring Victor Oladipo in the four-team blockbuster.
Harden is reunited with former Oklahoma City teammate Kevin Durant, giving the Nets two former MVPs with 18 All-Star appearances and 16 All-NBA team berths between them. Eventually, it’s presumed Kyrie Irving will join them.
Brooklyn dealt Caris LeVert, who the Rockets then flipped to Indianapolis for Oladipo.
In addition, the Nets sent four future first-round picks (including a first from Cleveland in 2022 that originally belonged to Milwaukee) and four future pick swaps.
