OKC Thunder need to heed concerning motor of draft prospect Luka Samanic

Yet another European big with a full toolbox of fundamental skills. He’s projected to play at the power forward but there is a reason to believe his skills could afford his drafting team the option of playing him at the small forward as well.

Much like the other Euro big (Goga Bitadze) Samanic has the potential to play both under the rim and out to the arc.

Although his draft selection should fall in the OKC Thunder range (again, if rumors Presti is shopping the 21st pick it may be a moot point) the question is whether Presti would want to add a fundamentally sound big or keep the focus on adding shooting to the roster.
