ATLANTA — The Atlanta Hawks acquired 22-year-old Vit Krejci from the Oklahoma City Thunder in exchange for veteran forward Maurice Harkless in a trade on Tuesday night.

Krejci was a second-round pick in the 2020 draft. The 6-foot-8 guard played in 30 games during his rookie season with Oklahoma City, averaging 6.2 points and 3.4 rebounds.

The Thunder also received a 2029 second-round pick and another draft consideration from the Hawks in exchange for the younger Krejci.

The 6-foot-9 Harkless averaged 4.6 points and 2.4 rebounds in 47 games with Sacramento last season. He was traded by the Kings to the Hawks in July.

Harkless made his NBA debut with Orlando in 2012. He has career averages of 6.9 points and 3.5 rebounds in 621 games, also playing for Portland, Miami, the Los Angeles Clippers and New York Knicks.
