OKC Thunder 3 Point Volume Real? Starters Tipping? Ajay Mitchell Role?

  1. I doubt Caruso will be a starter. I see him closing games. For a starter, I expect Isiah Joe. The season is 82 games; I think the coaching staff will save Caruso's legs for the playoffs. I see Hartenstein starting as the opponent's lineups dictate.

  2. Hey Rylan I was wondering about Jalen Williams left shoulder sleeve. He’s been wearing it every game since game 2 of the Pels series last season. Curious to know if this is for shoulder stability because of a possible shoulder dislocation or injury he suffered. It seems to still be bothering him in the preseason I’ll see him wincing and touching it. Just seems odd that no injury was ever reported and I don’t think he wears it for cosmetic reasons. Could you maybe ask about it in the future? Thanks!

  3. Ajay Mitchell is someone to watch. That head fake and drive is special. He has some great creativity around the rim in order to finish with his stature. Hope he gets some run every once in awhile when the season is rolling along.

  4. I think so. As an avid SGA 3 point critic, I've really enjoyed his growth. He first found confidence in shooting a better %, and now he's confident enough in his % to increase his volume. He also got shown in the playoffs that he could use that increased volume.

  5. The walk you took with Andrew was awesome and all true. This team has all the ingredients for a historic run. But there's one question you left out, does this team believe they are ready for that run? Not in their heads, because the numbers say so, but in their hearts and souls.
    I remember the Bad Boys' run, the Bulls run, this current Celtics run. I'm not saying they can't because I truly believe that they will, but sometimes you have to actually see the mountaintop and fall just short to know with your entire being you can beat the mountain.
