The Caris LeVert-for-Victor Oladipo portion of the blockbuster trade sending James Harden to the Brooklyn Nets is now official — but there’s a but. In addition to LeVert and Houston’s 2023 second-round pick, the Pacers will now also be receiving cash from Brooklyn, as well as Cleveland’s 2024 second-round pick, due to an issue that was discovered in LeVert’s physical, reports The Athletic’s Shams Charania.
“Caris is a high-quality person who will fit in with what we as an organization are doing, on and off the floor,” Kevin Pritchard said in a statement issued via the team.
