## Resource

The Oklahoma City Thunder looked unstoppable—favorites to win it all—until the Spurs knocked them out in Game 7. But don’t panic: their future is brighter than ever. With a young, contract-locked core, a mountain of draft picks (including two first-rounders from the Clippers and Sixers), and GM Sam Presti’s knack for trade magic, OKC is poised to make bold moves before draft night. They’ve already locked in 15 players for next season, but may shed some roster weight—especially around Lu Dort’s contract. Experts predict they’ll either trade up in the draft, target big men like Yaxel Lendeborg or Morez Johnson Jr., or swap picks for even more future capital. Whether they stay put or pivot, OKC’s got the blueprint to keep building while riding the championship window. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
