The Oklahoma City Thunder have agreed to terms with Steven Adams and Victor Oladipo on four-year contract extensions, two people with knowledge of the situation told the Associated Press.

Adams is finalizing a deal worth $100 million and Oladipo is getting $84 million. The AP sources requested anonymity because the deals had not been announced. They came with hours to spare before Monday’s midnight Eastern deadline.

Getting the deals finalized now ensured that neither player would get to restricted free agency next summer and redefined a core around Russell Westbrook now that Kevin Durant is playing for the Golden State Warriors.
