Oklahoma City’s pick count over the next seven drafts: 14 first-rounders, 22 second-rounders and enough picks swaps to make your head spin. “When you simulate the GM mode in [NBA]2K, I tend to take the Sam Presti route and stack up picks,” Phoenix Suns star Kevin Durant, the face of the franchise during Oklahoma City’s previous stretch as a contender, said last month. “You got so many assets in this league, you can do so much with a team.” The Thunder have the luxury of such extreme patience in part because their superstar buys into the big picture. Gilgeous-Alexander signed a five-year maximum contract extension in the summer of 2021 when Oklahoma City was coming off a 22-50 season, a deal that notably does not include a player option. He doesn’t spend any time worrying about the Thunder’s timeline, trusting Presti to figure out the best path toward “sustained high performance over a long period of time,” as the GM put it.

The Thunder — loaded with young talent and a stockpile of draft picks — are widely considered a contender in the making. Sam Presti refuses to rush the process. “We have to finish our breakfast before we start acting like we’re on the cusp of something.” espn.com/nba/story/_/id… – 9:56 AM
