A Competitive, Close Battle with Golden State

LAS VEGAS - In its third Summer League matchup, the Thunder burst out to a hot start offensively. The ball moved quickly into open hands and rapidly up the floor in transition. The strong offensive start was spurred by second-year point guard Théo Maledon who found his stroke from behind the arc early on.

On the right wing, the 20-year-old sized up his defender as he prepared to receive a ball screen. With nothing but a ball fake and a quick step back, Maledon was able to dislodge his defender to clear a wide-open look from deep.
