Dort, undrafted three years ago and someone who made about $4 million combined in his three seasons with Oklahoma City, will stay with the Thunder for the next five years on the reported deal.

The 23-year-old Canadian guard has been a key piece in the Thunder’s rebuilding process, making a big impact on both ends of the floor. Dort produced career highs with OKC last season, averaging a career-best 17.2 points and 4.2 rebounds over 51 games in 2021-22. His season was cut short in March due to a torn labrum in his left shoulder and underwent a successful procedure to repair the injury.
