I think Jones could legit be playing over J Will this season. Its tough to get minutes on this team, when these 9 guys will be playing every night
SGA, Dort, JDub, IHart, Chet, Caruso, Wallace, Wiggins, Joe
Not much left for Mitchell, Jones and JWill. But I think those 12 will be the only ones seeing meaningful minutes this year. Pouring one out for Kenny
Mitchell I think is a better player (reminds me a lot of Wiggins tbh), but Jones is so versatile at his size. I do think he might suffer from hero ball tendencies though. But dream scenario is he could become an offensive spark 6 man

They play like seasoned players and sync up like they’ve played together for years. We are experiencing an embarrassment of riches.

My wife asked me who Dillion Jones was and I described him as Dort w/shockingly good court awareness.
Dillon was working so hard that game. It was so damn refreshing. Hilariously it felt like Cason last year where you’re just like “Fuuuuuuck that trade is forgiven” as I was hurt that we didn’t get Lively to back up Chet (we saw how important Lively was though in the playoffs, though Cason did a great job himself)
Dillion Jones just “makes sense” and I truly hope to see him at the bottom of the rotation or an increased role if there’s unfortunately an injury.
Ajay? I had zero expectations and was amazed at his offensive power.
Look, to be a Thunder fan is to feel an excitement that hasn’t existed in so damn long. I hope we all relish it.
