NBA Champion Serge Ibaka of the Toronto Raptors. Doesn’t that sound just right?
The 10-year veteran has had quite the bumping ride arriving at this point. Starting off in Oklahoma City with the Thunder, Ibaka and a trio of teammates (Kevin Durant, Russell Westbrook, and James Harden) looked to be the building blocks to a potential dynastic run, even reaching all the way to the NBA Finals.
Things eventually turned sour as Harden was moved for cap reasons which eventually helped push Durant out the door (with the last block having crumbled with the Thunder’s recently trading Westbrook).
