OKC Thunder lands a “replacement” for Andre Roberson

Where there’s a will, there’s a way. Even with limited assets, I believe that Sam Presti will get the job done in adding to the roster before this week’s NBA trade deadline. The Thunder have struggled since Andre Roberson went down with an injury, and they simply need something to jump start the team.

I predict that Presti will deliver someone for the Thunder. I’m not sure who that someone will be, but a couple names that have been connected to OKC over the last week or so are Avery Bradley and Rodney Hood.

It’s not certain that any of these two players will help all that much, but it will give the Thunder options. At this point, that’s better than just sitting on their hands.
