Andre Roberson returns to Thunder in NBA Restart

The injury happened on January 27th, 2018. Roberson was enjoying arguably his best season, leading an elite Oklahoma City Thunder defense, and was a legitimate contender for Defensive Player of the Year. He was so damn good at defense that it finally didn’t matter whether or not he could shoot.
