Thunder send Perry Jones to Celtics in salary dump, save $7 million

Perry Jones follows Jeremy Lamb out the door, and the Thunder save $7 million in their first move after re-signing Enes Kanter.

Two days after they matched a maximum offer sheet to Enes Kanter, the Oklahoma City Thunder have wiped Perry Jones' contract off the books. They'll send him along with a second-round pick and cash to the Boston Celtics, taking back a protected second-rounder in 2018. From Daily Thunder's Royce Young:

Thunder announce the trade. Sending Perry Jones, a 2019 2nd rounder and cash to Boston for a 2018 protected 2nd rounder and trade exception.
