Rockets guard James Harden is headed to Brooklyn as part of a multi-team deal that involves significant assets from both the Nets and Pacers. According to the reports, the Rockets will receive multiple first-round picks from the Nets and Pacers guard Victor Oladipo. The Pacers, after jettisoning Oladipo, are set to receive Nets guard Caris LeVert. The Cavaliers are also involved as a fourth team in the deal.
The Athletic’s Shams Charania detailed the move once all the teams involved came into focus.
Rockets are acquiring Caris LeVert in James Harden deal from Brooklyn and sending LeVert to Indiana to acquire two-time All-Star Victor Oladipo -- in addition to the four first-round picks and four draft pick swaps, sources said.
