OKC Thunder: Abdel Nader better ball distribution is key to greater production

Abdel Nader has had a roller coaster season for the OKC Thunder. He was unable to crack the rotation early on, Nader had a 23 point and a 19 point game, reminding us what he can do. This was just after I suggested he spend some time in the G-League to regain his confidence.

Nader was then called up into the starting lineup three games later thanks to injury issues. Like the rest of the OKC Thunder squad, Nader performed his role well, helping the team to go 3-2 over this time.

Nader stepped back to a bench role and continued to give good minutes when the team needed him before he was pushed further down the rotation thanks to Hamidou Diallo returning.
