The Thunder acquired Garuba in a multi-player trade earlier this offseason with the Atlanta Hawks. This news comes days after TyTy Washington Jr. was also released by OKC.
The 21-year-old spent his first two seasons with the Houston Rockets, where he averaged 2.8 points and 3.9 rebounds. He was drafted 23rd overall in the first round of the 2021 NBA draft.
Garuba is currently representing Spain in the 2023 FIBA World Cup.
The Thunder continue to make roster decisions as they look to trim their roster down to 15 full-time players by the start of the 2023-24 season.
