OKLAHOMA CITY -- The Oklahoma City Thunder are on a roll, having won a season-high seven consecutive games after Saturday night's victory at Detroit.
But in the locker room after the game, the mood was somber. Guard Andre Roberson, one of the top defenders in the NBA, had to be carted off on a stretcher late in the third quarter.
Roberson suffered a ruptured patellar tendon when he went up on the baseline to try to catch a lob from Russell Westbrook before his left knee buckled.
The Thunder haven't lost since Dec.
