Oklahoma City is acquiring the $4.5M contract of Maurice Harkless into the $4.9M Disabled Player Exception that was granted from the Chet Holmgren injury.
The DPE was granted last week.
The Hawks now go under the luxury tax. – 5:40 PM

That’s the cleanest path to this deal getting done from the OKC side. – 5:27 PM
