I talked to two different teams this morning and both independently mentioned that they are monitoring the Thunder and what happens with the roster. One exec told me “Some good players are going to get cut from OKC and we all need to be ready to jump when that happens.” – via Twitter KeithSmithNBA

@cyro asseo its why i believe the thunder are not looking to get into the pascal siakam trade as per report by matt moore of action network. reason being siakam and sga form a dangerous duo and fit well together. allows the thunder to get a win now piece in siakam who is two time all star and all nba and under the age of 30. those players under 30 dont become available often. makes the thunder a playoff team with siakam. they got the players and picks to trade for siakam as well. what will siakam cost, likely 2 unprotected picks and 2 good young players and filler. maybe they ask for even a chris boucher and an otto porter jr and move more players and picks.
@cyro asseo if raptors are in a rebuild maybe even a big trade like siakam and og anunoby to thunder after august 25 when bertrans can be moved for a big pick haul and players. like ya said they gonna lose players so they may decide to just do a trade and move them instead of losing them for nothing.
sga siakam og is playoff team.
tyty and garuba were already traded to hawks
No way they cut Isaiah Joe I’ll be piss if they do he’s a great player to come off the bench
Unfortunately i think sam is cutting aaron wiggins out of last years guys it sucks cause he played well
You can have 21 guys going into camp because the new CBA, so nothing has to be done between now and camp. OKC keeps the following players. SGA, Dort, Giddey, JDub, Chet, Micic, Joe, Dieng, Krich, Jwill, Mann, Wallace, Wiggins, Bertans, Poku. the Cuts are Gay (happened today), Dipo, JRE, Tyty, Garuba, and Jack White. 3 of those 5 you got picks for taking in deals. tyty and Garuba could even be moved.
