The Thunder (Billy Donovan specifically) are in a tough spot right now. Donovan has yet to name a starter at Power Forward, and the highly anticipated season opener with the Golden State Warriors is just a few days away. Patrick Patterson has gotten the nod in the Thunder’s five organized contests this season (Blue-White scrimmage, four preseason games), but has not looked sharp early on.
Today, I take a dive into the cases for both Patrick Patterson and Jerami Grant, and where they fit in a projected starting lineup of Westbrook/Schroder, Ferguson/Diallo, George, ______, and Adams for the season opener next Tuesday night.
