OKC Thunder: The shot block mastery of Justin Patton

After signing on with the OKC Thunder at the start of the season, he has played every game with the OKC Blue. Justin Patton is a defensive-minded center who has a good outside stroke. However, Patton is being utilized as a more traditional center.

Patton is averaging 9.9 points, 8.1 rebounds, 3.0 assists, and 3.0 blocks in 27.1 minutes per game. He is also averaging 3.7 fouls per game, having fouled out of multiple games this season. In fact, he is second in the G-League for total fouls committed with 63.

However, it is Patton’s blocks which are historic for the OKC Blue.
