The OKC Thunder were the top seed in the Western Conference and they look even stronger after their NBA offseason moves. The Thunder just signed big man Isaiah Hartenstein to a 3-year 87 million deal just a week after Sam Presti and the OKC front office acquired defensive all-NBA guard Alex Caruso in exchange for Josh Giddey. The NBA draft has also been a strong area for the Thunder after they selected potential draft steal Nikola Topic with the 12th overall pick. With a core that already features NBA superstar Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, unicorn big man Chet Holgmgren, borderline all-star Jalen Williams, and lockdown specialist Lu Dort, OKC’s roster looks built for a potential NBA championship next season. But what will Hartenstein and Caruso bring to Oklahoma City?
Okc also made significant roster moves by signing high-level role players Isaiah Joe and Aaron Wiggins to long-term deals before the Hartenstein signing. The NBA offseason has been exciting. We’ve seen the Mavs land Klay Thompson, Paul George to the 76ers, Chris Paul to the Spurs, and even the much talked about Bronny James to the Lakers. But the Thunder’s additions are some of the best in the entire league. Will OKC now be considered championship favorites for next season? This could be an NBA dynasty waiting to happen specially with all the draft assets Sam Presti has accumulated throughout the years.
The Alex Caruso and Josh Giddey trade as well as the Isaiah Hartenstein signing is a big win for the Thunder but could they make some other moves this offseason? Is this enough to put them on top of the West again ahead of contenders like Luka Doncic and the Mavs, Nikola Jokic and the Nuggets, or Anthony Edwards and the Timberwolves. Can Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and this OKC Thunder core go head to head with defending champions Boston Celtics. There’s no one that’s having a better offseason than the Thunder for sure.
