He's still got some in the tank. One bad game and he was in the Dorture Chamber. The Thunder also have a million long Bois giving him hell. With no other real offensive threats this was tailor made for Thunder bros to lock him up.
He's not and never was a first option, but he's still going to average 18-22ppg on good % by the time year is done.
I see players doing this a lot. Is there a benefit I am unaware of ? I used to think the clock didnt start until they touched it.
