OKC Thunder assignee Justin Patton improved game I.Q accelerating his growth

OKC Thunder center Justin Patton has spent most of the season with the OKC Blue. He started the season slowly, constantly fouling out of games when he was needed. Now, Patton is showing a little more maturity, and he needs to with the multitude of injuries that the OKC Blue have suffered.

He has lost his frontcourt partners Kevin Hervey and Myke Henry for periods of time. Then the OKC Thunder called Luguentz Dort up to the varsity squad. This has taken the majority of the punch out of the starting unit.
