Report: Thunder Acquire Derrick Favors, Future First-Round Pick From Jazz

The Thunder are acquiring center Derrick Favors and a future first-round pick from the Jazz in exchange for a future second-round pick, according to ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski.

Favors, 30, was a first-round pick of the Nets in 2010, but has spent 10 years with the Jazz. Last season, he averaged 5.4 points and 5.5 rebounds in 15.3 minutes per game. The acquisition of the future first-round pick gives Oklahoma City yet another selection in an upcoming draft.

The Thunder had two first-round selections in Thursday's draft, selecting Australia's Josh Giddey sixth and Florida's Tre Mann with the 18th pick.
