Why Tre Mann’s Summer League was so important

The Oklahoma City Thunder selected Tre Mann with the 18th pick in the 2021 NBA Draft. The Florida product had an impressive rookie campaign, leading to many believing he would be an electric sixth man of the future and some thinking he could be a bucket-getting starter.

After a rookie season that featured seven 20-plus point games, including a 35-point outburst against the Boston Celtics on March 21st, 2021, which was a nine-point loss for the Thunder, Mann turned in 35 points on 62 percent shooting from the floor, 58 percent from beyond the arc on a jaw-dropping 12 attempts per game.
