The OKC Thunder have experienced a season of gigantic fluctuations in ebbs and flows. Adversity or rather how a squad overcomes that adversity is what can build champions. And while it’s not a member of their star triad, the loss of Andre Roberson is no less damaging.
Witnessing Roberson’s leg buckle with no one close to him made it clear the injury was bad immediately. Certainly there will be ample discussion about the injury, officially deemed a ruptured patellar tendon. This because Roberson missed time (eight games) earlier this season with patellar tendinitis. Questions will be asked regarding how quickly Roberson returned from the tendonitis.
