Thunder fans are still laughing at 76ers over Al Horford trade

The Oklahoma City Thunder will likely get the Philadelphia 76ers' first-round draft pick in 2026 from the Al Horford trade in 2020. The Thunder picked up a 2020 second-round selection in Theo Maledon, the draft rights to Vasilije Micic, and a 2026 first as Philly looked to dump Horford. He did not fit with Embiid, and the rebuilding Thunder were happy to add the four-time All-Star. OKC rehabbed his value in one year before shipping him to Boston for two more draft picks.

Sam Presti is always looking for value. He knows the Thunder will need their draft capital as their roster gets expensive.
