The defending champion Lakers reportedly would send veteran guard Danny Green and the 28th pick in this Wednesday’s NBA Draft (8 ET, ESPN) to the Thunder in exchange for Schroder.
Schroder was key for Oklahoma City during the 2019-20 season. He tallied 18.9 points, 4.0 assists and 3.6 rebounds in 30.8 minutes per night off the bench in his second season with the team.
The 27-year-old guard from Germany played the first five seasons of his career with the Atlanta Hawks, who selected him with the No. 17 pick in the 2013 NBA Draft.
According to Wojnarowski, the trade is “well on course” to be completed on Monday, when the league’s moratorium on transactions reportedly will be lifted. Charania reports the teams have agreed in principle to the deal.
