What Cameron Payne's injury means for the Thunder's roster

The Thunder announced Thursday that Cameron Payne suffered an acute fracture to his foot.

What does that mean for the Thunder's roster?

The Thunder's signing of Ronnie Price to a two-year contract this offseason looks smart. Price is not only a steady defender, but now much more than just a third guard with Payne's injury.

Acute foot fractures typically have a recovery period of 6-8 weeks (the same as a stress fracture, which was Payne's first injury from his rookie season). That would put Payne's earliest return to action at Nov.
