Thunder eliminated from playoffs after 109-95 loss to Pelicans

If you were busy watching the NFL Draft, then no worries, not much was missed with this game outside of the debut of Gabriel Deck in a 109-95 loss to the New Orleans Pelicans.

Deck signed a multi-year deal with the Oklahoma City Thunder on April 12 but was finally able to play tonight with his new team after dealing with immigration issues and COVID-19 protocols.

Thunder head coach Mark Daigneault mentioned pregame that players like Deck and Charlie Brown Jr. would be taking Kenrich Williams minutes tonight to see what they are made of. He cites that the season only has a handful of games left as a reason to sit Williams.
