There were many layers to Dennis Schröder’s arrival in Oklahoma City. He was traded there as part of a three team deal in which the Thunder were able to part ways with Carmelo Anthony. Prior to being traded he had discussed his future, and then potential role with Head Coach Billy Donovan and General Manager Sam Presti where it was made clear: you aren’t the star here. Dennis would have to take on the role of sixth man on that iteration of the Thunder. He did so swimmingly, putting up averages of 15.5 points and 4.1 assists per game.
