The Oklahoma City Thunder announced on Monday they had waived forward Usman Garuba.
The Thunder acquired Garuba in a multi-player trade this offseason with the Atlanta Hawks. This news comes days after TyTy Washington Jr. was also released by OKC.
The 21-year-old spent his first two seasons with the Houston Rockets, with whom he averaged 2.8 points and 3.9 rebounds. He was drafted 23rd in the first round of the 2021 NBA draft.
Garuba is representing Spain in the 2023 FIBA World Cup.
The Thunder continue to make roster decisions as they trim their roster to 15 full-time players by the start of the 2023-24 season.
