A game of full court, one-on-one after a lengthy practice session can be grueling work, but there D.J. Augustin was on Sunday afternoon, pushing the pace against Steve Novak, then turning around and defending his teammate on the other end.
Seemingly a normal snapshot of his daily work, Augustin likely thinks nothing of his post-practice efforts. To the Thunder, however, it’s going the extra mile every day that puts the team in position to be successful. Augustin, like fellow veterans Anthony Morrow, Kyle Singler and Nick Collison have all done this season, is simply keeping himself sharp and prepared for his moment.
