What else could OKC possibly do?

The Thunder will have five first-round picks next season and even more in future years. OKC has the flexibility to make nearly any trade they want. The Thunder are in a complete rebuild, but if they select the right players at two and 12th overall, those future picks could be traded for a solid player or could be used to draft a potential star down the road.

OKC has a bright future, but if they select poorly this year, it could be a long time before we see them back in the playoffs.

Hopefully, the Thunder will choose the right players this season, and we can see them back in playoff contention soon.
