Aleksej Pokusevski Waived By Thunder
9 months agoOklahoma City Thunder center Aleksej Pokusevski is reportedly getting waived on Friday, according to Shams Charania. After being drafted by the Minnesota Timberwolves with the 17th overall pick in the 2020 NBA draft, he was promptly traded to the Thunder, where he spent his first three seasons. During his time in Oklahoma City, Pokusevski averaged 7.5 points, 4.7 rebounds, 2.0 assists, and 1.6 turnovers per game while shooting just 38.7% from the floor. The 22-year-old only appeared in 10 games for the Thunder this season and fell out of the lineup once Chet Holmgren stepped into the starting lineup. Pokusevski could latch on with a rebuilding team and get some more opportunities to develop.
