1. League-changing

2. Going from a NBA championship to Washington is devastating

3. as a Dillon Jones believer, i am sad

4. Thunder gotta dump picks to do roster relief

5. He bringing championship experience to Washington

6. Wizards getting more championship experience

7. I feel like everybody knew he was the one getting shipped out

8. Shame I thought he could be a decent player for us In the future after seeing him in pre season

9. Trading last years 1st round pick and attaching a pick to do it kinda sucks but the reality of OKCs situation

10. trading for what or who? What or who are they getting?

    A trade is an exchange. Not a gift.

    Edit: I am guessing it is the ever popular, Cash Considerations.

11. The Thunder traded like 5 SRPs last year to acquire Dillon Jones and now trade him along with another SRP lol

    So he cost them 6 SRPs in total

12. Roster crunch. I’d expect them to also dump Dieng.

    Can’t believe we couldn’t get a single pick from this team.

13. I assumed OKC was going to have to make a move like this. From the top to the bottom, just like that. Sorry about you, Dillon.

14. Got some more championship experience in Washington!!

15. Damn, I actually really believe in DJ

16. Can’t imagine what that guy is feeling right now

17. One of the trades of all time

18. nice deal Washington

19. at least he got a ring

20. Okc had to clear a roster spot somehow

21. It’s for the best for him. There is zero time for him to build

22. Wizards doing a polaroid version of the Nets draft strategy: playing five first round picks from the same draft, they just happened to acquire them over the course of one season instead of all in one night.

23. Wow OKC sending out championship pedigree

24. OKC Fan, Jones just was not going to get much time unless it was garbage time especially with Topic coming in. I’m sure he would not complain about what he learned and getting a ring. At least in Washington he will get a chance at more minutes.

25. lmaoo what? didnt this guy get picked up for several 2nd rounders now he comes with a 2nd rounder to get him off the team

26. Enjoy him, WAS. Dude got physical tools and good mentality but just completely raw in terms of feel for the game. Hope he benefits starting somewhere fresh where he got a chance to really build his career, there simply is no space and meaningful PT for him in OKC

27. Wizards are slowly building a solid team , especially in the East

    They’ll make the play in

28. Welcome, I promise you it’s not thatttt bad here. Just ask that you try your best

29. Wizards are apparently sending Colby Jones to OKC. The most random, inconsequential ‘were they just bored?’ trade ever lol

    Edit: Shams added that OKC plans to immediately release Colby Jones, because sure lol.

30. I was really high on this guy pre draft

31. NBA Champion Dillon Jones

32. Dillon Jones walking into the Wizards locker room with all the championship experience. He goes from team errand boy to experienced champion vet.

33. The wizards now have 5 first round players from the 2024 draft. And picked up Dillion jones and AJ Johnson for Pennies. Dawkins playing moneyball

34. Fell to my knees outside a Bricktown dive bar. Godspeed, D. Jones

35. Wizards need a vet like Dillon Jones

36. Nba Champion Dillon Jones

37. That’s NBA CHAMPION Dillon Jones, Thunder Legend! 🌩🏆🌩

38. Dillon Jones was the ultimate team guy this year. Always the first one up off the bench to celebrate his team. Hope he sticks in DC and gets paid 💰

39. With big moves like this, they may finally go all the way

40. What did okc get out of the trade?

41. Dillon Jones and Khris Middleton going to teach the young Wizards what championship culture means
