SALT LAKE CITY — The NBA’s wild offseason got even crazier late Thursday when it was reported by ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski that the Oklahoma City Thunder had agreed to trade 2017 league MVP Russell Westbrook to the Houston Rockets for Chris Paul and draft picks.

The trade comes on the heels of the Thunder agreeing to send Paul George to the LA Clippers last week (that trade was finalized earlier this week).
