Victor Oladipo, a two-time All Star with the Indiana Pacers and former face of the franchise, has been traded to the Rockets, according to multiple reports. 

The Athletic’s Shams Charania first reported Oladipo was part of a four-team deal, which sends superstar James Harden to the Brooklyn Nets in exchange for three first-round picks and four pick swaps, among other assets. The Pacers acquired former Brooklyn guard Caris LeVert and a second-round pick in the deal.

Speculation of a potential trade involving Oladipo has been swirling for months. IndyStar reported in November Oladipo had asked opposing teams some version of the statement, “Can I come play with y’all?”
