Oklahoma City Thunder Acquire the Rights to J.P. Tokoto

Multiple sources are reporting that the Oklahoma City Thunder have acquired the rights to J.P. Tokoto, the 58th overall pick in the 2015 NBA Draft. Tokoto had been selected by the Philadelphia 76ers.

However, the sources differ as to how the Thunder acquired Tokoto, who had been selected by the Philadelphia 76ers. The Sixers had, according to Erik Horne of The Oklahoman, waived Tokoto prior to the start of the season:

J.P. Tokoto was waived by the Sixers after the preseason, so Sixers don't own Tokoto's rights. Not a Sixers to Thunder trade.

But the deal may have been made to send Tokoto to Oklahoma City’s D-League affiliate, the OKC Blue:
