NBA Trade Deadline: Grading how all 30 teams performed at the deadline
Oklahoma City Thunder
Key Moves:
N/A
It’s not a big surprise that the Oklahoma City Thunder didn’t make a move at the NBA Trade Deadline. They don’t have much salary cap flexibility and have limited to no assets at their disposal.
Plus, let’s not forget the fact that this team has been relatively the third best team in the Western Conference for consistently the entire season. Perhaps they feel that this team is good enough to make a real run in the playoffs.
The Thunder are in a good position, even more considering that the big moves made at the trade deadline really took place in the Eastern Conference. There were no real upgrades that took place for West teams, and that’s something OKC should feel good about.
Grade: C
