The Thunder’s next step, finding the center of the future

The Thunder have no real long-term solutions at center at present. Oklahoma City have three centers on the roster and all of them factor in Sam Presti’s thinking in different ways. Mike Muscala, Derrick Favors and Jeremiah Robinson-Earl all have different roles and stories.

Mike Muscala is someone who I would expect the Thunder to keep around for the future. Muscala has emerged as a good veteran on a young roster and as a standard-bearer for the team’s culture.

Muscala expressed a desire to stay in Oklahoma City during his exit interview and chose to sign a new contract with the team in the offseason.
