Tulsa 66ers News Release


TULSA, Okla., November 4, 2013 - The Tulsa 66ers, proud affiliate of the Oklahoma City Thunder, acquired center Jonathan Kreft and a third-round pick in the 2014 NBA D-League Draft through two separate trades, the team announced Monday.

Tulsa acquired Kreft from the Santa Cruz Warriors in exchange for the 66ers second-round pick in the 2014 Draft while receiving a 2014 third-round pick from the Canton Charge for center Longar Longar.

Kreft (7-0, 262, Florida State) was originally drafted in the second round (20th overall pick) of Friday's 2013 NBA D-League Draft by Santa Cruz. A member of the 2012 ACC Champion Seminoles, Kreft averaged 3.0 points, 2.3 rebounds and 10.3 minutes in 35 games during his senior season at FSU (2011-12). Kreft most recently saw action for Tsmoki-Minsk in Belarus, averaging 4.0 points and 2.0 rebounds in three games.

Longar (6-11, 230, Oklahoma) was selected in the fourth round (65th overall pick) by the 66ers in the 2013 Draft. Longar holds career NBA D-League averages of 6.5 points and 5.5 rebounds in 28 games (eight starts) between 2008 and 2011.

Tulsa opens the 2013-14 season at the SpiritBank Event Center on Nov. 22 and 23 against the Iowa Energy.
