According to the latest NBA trade rumors, the Oklahoma City Thunder team is reportedly planning to improve their roster to fill the void created by Kevin Durant and Serge Ibaka's departure. Reports claimed that the OKC Thunder might bring in Philadelphia 76ers center player Jahlil Okafor.

The 20-year-old player has an average of 17.0 points, 7.0 rebounds, and 1.2 blocks per game.
