What happened

Oklahoma City waived wing Dalen Terry on Sunday after acquiring Niq Clifford from Sacramento for two second-round picks, ending Terry's short stint with the Thunder.

Terry is expected to clear waivers and return to free agency, and he had appeared in two Thunder games, logging 11 minutes overall before the move.

LINEUP CONTEXT

This trims Oklahoma City's wing depth, while Terry's next landing spot remains uncertain unless another team claims him off waivers.
