The Thunder signed Whitehead on Friday, Clemente Almanza of USA Today reports.
EDGE Analysis
Whitehead was unable to survive Brooklyn's roster crunch, but it's not a surprise to see another NBA team scoop him up quickly. This is likely to be an Exhibit 10 deal with the Thunder looking to secure his G League rights.

Whitehead logged 17 points (5-13 FG, 5-9 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds and one assist in 26 minutes during Thursday's 105-90 loss to the Timberwolves.
EDGE Analysis
Whitehead scored double-digits for just the third time all season, playing at least 15 minutes for the third straight game. While this was an encouraging performance by Whitehead, it remains to be seen whether he will stick as a consistent part of the rotation for the remainder of the season.

Brooklyn recalled Whitehead from the G League's Long Island Nets on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Whitehead has made just one two-minute appearance for the parent club since the All-Star break, but he could get a longer look in the final weeks of the season while Brooklyn is in player-evaluation mode.

Brooklyn assigned Whitehead to the Long Island Nets on Friday.
EDGE Analysis
Whitehead returned from a right knee injury to play against the Spurs on Tuesday. He played only two minutes in that game and was a healthy scratch for Brooklyn's 121-119 loss to Golden State on Thursday. His last G League action was Feb. 25 against the Westchester Knicks, and he should have the opportunity to see more reps and playing time with Long Island.

Whitehead (knee) is off the injury report for Tuesday's game against San Antonio.
EDGE Analysis
Whitehead is set to return from a three-game absence Tuesday due to a right knee injury. The 20-year-old hasn't appeared in an NBA game since Jan. 22, and there is no guarantee that he'll see the floor during his return.

Whitehead (knee) has been ruled out for Friday's contest against Portland.
EDGE Analysis
Since he was recalled from the G League, Whitehead has missed the last two games due to his knee injury. However, even if he was available to play, it would be unlikely that Whitehead would even see the court (he's logged only seven appearances this season). His next opportunity to play is Saturday versus the Pistons.

Whitehead is listed as out for Wednesday's game against the Thunder due to a right knee injury.
EDGE Analysis
Whitehead likely sustained the knee injury during his most recent appearance in the G League for the Long Island Nets on Tuesday, when he was limited to playing 13 minutes in a 119-117 win over the Westchester Knicks. The second-year wing's absence for Wednesday's game won't affect head coach Jordi Fernandez's rotation.
