OKC Thunder: Dort’s busy summer of honors, fun, giving back

It’s been a busy summer for OKC Thunder guard-forward Luguentz Dort who spent much of his time back home in Canada.

He represented his National Team at the Olympic Qualifying Tournament where he became a favorite of Team Canada (and Raptors) coach Nick Nurse. Although he came off the bench, as each game progressed Nurse increased Dort’s minutes and he was always on the court at the game end drawing the hardest defensive assignment.

Any Canuck that wasn’t fully aware of Dort’s talents prior to this summer became huge fans over the course of that qualifying tournament.
