The Oklahoma City Thunder announced on Monday that they have officially signed Vasilije Micic.
The news became official after ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski reported the signing on July 1. Micic signed a three-year, $23.5 million deal.
With the addition, the Thunder adds one of the best international players. The 29-year-old is a highly decorative guard who has won the EuroLeague championship twice, 2021 and 2022, and the Turkish League championship three times in 2019, 2021 and 2023. He also won the EuroLeague MVP in 2021.
Micic spent the last four seasons with the Anadolu Efes. In 34 games last season, he averaged 17.5 points on 46.1% shooting, 4.6 assists and 2.7 rebounds. He also shot 33.9% from 3.
The Thunder acquired Micic’s draft rights from the Philadelphia 76ers in 2020 in the Al Horford trade. He was drafted in the second round (52nd) of the 2014 NBA draft.
