The court cleared at the Thunder's practice facility on Tuesday, as players in their first year in Oklahoma City filed into a room. Paul George didn't budge, now part of the established rather than the unfamiliar.
In the room, players such as Dennis Schroder, Hamidou Diallo and Abdel Nader were given a tutorial on the Thunder's travel logistics, like where to meet at Will Rogers Airport. It was a mini seminar for those unfamiliar with Oklahoma City, so George didn't have to go. He stayed on the court to fire up jumpers, then challenged a Thunder assistant to stay in front of his dribble.
