Dennis Schroder starts a new chapter with the Thunder
As the closing minutes of Dennis Schroder's introduction to Oklahoma City approached, the newest Thunder star had some explaining to do.
Broad shoulders poked out of a pristine white Thunder jersey as Schroder ran his hand across his closely-cropped haircut. Schroder couldn't escape his first sit-down as a Thunder player without addressing why he cut his hair, trademark gold patch included.
“I had to,” Schroder said simply. “It's a new start.”
Even in a new environment, the Thunder is in a better position entering the season with Schroder, unlike last season when Carmelo Anthony was acquired days before training camp.
