Thunder, Victor Oladipo reportedly agree to lucrative four-year extension

Published Nov. 15, 2016 2:49 p.m. ET

Victor Oladipo has played only three games for the Oklahoma City Thunder, but the 24-year-old shooting guard has already shown enough for the team to make a lucrative financial investment in him.

The Thunder has agreed to a four-year, $84 million deal with Oladipo, The Vertical reported Monday. Oklahoma City acquired Oladipo from the Magic -- along with forwards Ersan Ilyasova and Domantas Sabonis -- over the summer for forward Serge Ibaka.

The deadline to reach agreement on a contract extension with players who were drafted in 2013 is Monday at 11:59 p.m. ET.

Oladipo, who was taken second overall by Orlando in 2013, has averaged 15.9 points with 4.3 rebounds and 4.0 assists during his four-year career. The Thunder hope the combination of Oladipo and Russell Westbrook will form one of the most dynamic backcourts in the league.

Oladipo is averaging 17.0 points, 3.7 rebounds and 2.3 assists this season.
