I dont watch a whole bunch of thunder games but every time I do, he’s been good. Literally every single time. Poster boy for consistent elite play

Yea people are missing the point here. Im not saying he would be an all star or anything but he’s a good player

We’re so lucky to have him on that contract. He’s getting better and better each year.

Hate the thunder but he’s good. I was surprised to see him shooting off the dribble. He hits 3s, rebounds and makes good decisions. It seems everyone the thunder throw out there is good.

Everybody on the Thunder is good. Except maybe that barnhizer guy.

I remember when it was a question who the better J Will was (not a long period of time). People knew he was good but he’s been under the radar the last couple years

i remember loving him when he was at arkansas because he was a charge drawing machine, i think he had a lot of charges taken in his rookie year too. is he still a charge taker these days

Ugh, we play you enough to realize he’s good.

This sample size is tiny but he’s been very decent throughout this season - not just the games where guys have been out. His shooting has been turning around from a slump earlier in the year and he’s a pretty good passer.

Not sure if he’s good enough to be “a big breakout candidate” but I do think he’d be useful to every other team in the league as a rotation guy. He has the skills to fit in a lot of other schemes and with different types of players imo

I think he got a triple double last season the 1 game they let him go out and do whatever. They also extended him for 3 years despite him not usually getting a ton of PT and most people thought they bought low.

And just knowing okc he’s probably a top 15 center in the league that is essentially waiting for his turn.

If you take it to a 25 minute minimum, his averages drop to 14.⁴⁄₈.⁸⁄₄ in 8 games (and last year would be 13.5/10/6 in 7 games), which is still a really strong showing for an undersized center who isn’t super athletic.

The Thunder’s starting lineup is at its best with iHart because of his secondary playmaking and his rim protection. Being able to have Jaylin come in with some of that passing ability will be super important for their depth at the 5. Plus he defended Jokic pretty well last year in the playoffs.

Someone can count

He’s the locker room guy. I’d be so shocked if they traded him.

With how we’re currently constructed and the fact that Jokic exists, he’s necessary for our team.

Damn. Are Rockets fans widely trending out on Sengun?

I’m sorry, but Sengun is one of the most overrated players in the league in my opinion.

I have no idea how he got the rep he has when he isn’t a particularly high-level scorer, has bad efficiency for a big man, can’t shoot, doesn’t play great defense, and is a horrendous screen setter. I feel like he has the benefit of being on a well coached team and that’s about it.

Think it’s more likely they trade two of Hart, Dort and Caruso

Not a chance in the world

No offense because obviously you don’t follow the team, but no Chet is beyond critical to the team. His defensive impact is top 3 and some games, top 1 in the world. Check the advanced metrics.

And while his offense is unpolished, remember that he has played less than 3 seasons of NBA basketball and even still he is one of the most efficient, reliable 3rd option/play finishers in the league.

So I see your point but we really can’t afford to move him ever.
