The Thunder just did the Knicks’ draft capital a solid on Thursday night, slipping by the Mavs for a toasty victory. Now they’re doing New York another turn with parts of their roster in flux and their most dynamic player, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, sitting due to a quad contusion.
The Knicks are dangerously close to falling under .500 for the first time in what seems like forever. The last time they met the Thunder things didn’t go so well with OKC wisely circling the drain of New York’s tightly wound offense. Well, we don’t have to go over the past.
