    Apr 12 2024

    82 games sure do fly by! The Thunder's season is almost coming to a close with 2 games left in the regular season remaining.

    OKC looks to be destined for the 3 seed. On today's episode, Michael Martin is joined by Derek Parker of Draft Digest and Inside the Thunder to discuss why the Thunder should and shouldn't want to play against the Pelicans, Suns or Kings in the first round.

    They also revisit Derek's pre-draft hit on Cason Wallace, what has impressed him from the rookie this season, if his ceiling has changed at all after seeing a whole season with him and more!
