The Oklahoma City Thunder officially waived Justin Jackson Friday.

The Thunder acquired Jackson from the Boston Celtics in the Mike Muscala trade on Thursday. With the Thunder also signing two-way player Eugene Omoruyi to a full-time deal, they needed to create a roster spot.

The trade garnered the Thunder two future second-round picks from the Celtics in the 2023 and 2029 drafts. Jackson previously played for the Thunder in the 2020-21 season.

With Omoruyi now on the full-time roster, that opens up a two-way spot besides Lindy Waters III.

Jackson was owed $2.1 million this season. In 23 games with the Celtics, Jackson averaged 0.9 points, 0.7 rebounds and 0.4 assists.
