The Oklahoma City Thunder pride themselves in bringing high quality people and players into the organization. As Sam Presti said at a press conference, ‘We draft people first, players second.”
Jeremiah Robinson-Earl (JRE), a talented big out of Villanova, fits that description to a “T”. He’s a guy you’d be proud to have representing your organization; a team first guy, willing to do whatever’s necessary to help the team.
Jeremiah Robinson-Earl, reigning Co Big East Player of the Year, was selected with the 32nd Pick in the 2021 NBA Draft. Oklahoma City traded their 34th and 36th picks in the Draft in order to move up and select him.
