Growing Up Thunder: Luguentz Dort turns it up

Luguentz Dort has gone from undrafted free agent rookie to starting shooting guard, providing the Thunder with a huge spark as he’s moved into that role.

Dort has shown tremendous hustle and willingness to fight through everything on defense. When you watch him play, you think to yourself, “how does this guy have so much energy”? He has no off switch, and he brings it on nightly basis.

Dort has shown he’s earned an NBA contract, and it’s likely that he will receive one once he accumulates the maximum of 45 days of NBA service. There is no need to worry about whether Dort will remain with the team for the rest of the season and the playoffs.
