Victor Oladipo has embraced his trade from the Orlando Magic to the Oklahoma City Thunder and quickly signed a four-year, $84 million extension with the franchise.

"I was a little shocked at first," Oladipo recalled Saturday in a phone interview. "But after it all soaked in, I was excited and looking forward to the opportunity. I'm glad where I am. Sometimes change is good."

Oladipo will play the Magic on Sunday for the first time since his trade to the Thunder.

Oladipo also spoke about the open shots that have been created by playing with Russell Westbrook.

"It's been great," Oladipo said. "He makes the game a lot easier for me. Just being around him, you kind of get his infectious mentality and his killer instinct."

Oladipo is averaging 16.2 points per game.
