When the OKC Thunder traded for Victor Oladipo and Domantas Sabonis on draft night in 2017, the NBA world was nothing like it is now. There was no COVID-19, stands were full and Sabonis had a supporter mentor as a coach in Billy Donovan.
Yes, Donovan asked Sabonis to play a different style of game to what he is playing now, but at least Donovan respected all those around him. There are rumors abounding around Sabonis’ current club, the Indiana Pacers. These rumors surround their coach Nate Bjorkgren and his miss management of staff and players
Bjorkgren is reportedly facing an uncertain future with the franchise per Woj of ESPN.
