Thunder injury update: Andre Roberson progressing, Nerlens Noel limited

Thunder coach Billy Donovan said he was encouraged that guard Andre Roberson was a full participant Sunday in what Donovan described as a "really, really physical" day of practice.

"Is he at the level he was defensively before the injury? No. But can he get there? I believe so," Donovan said. "You can see when he's out there he understands when to switch, he understands positioning, he understands things that are happening before they happen. He is still very disruptive in practice. I think the more we have these kinds of practices, the more it's gonna help him.
