I thought Magic played in the Big 3 or whatever tournament?

Maybe that was Jaret Jack.

Nobody watch Thunder games? Or is it just that Prizm isn’t out yet so there’s nothing to pump?

Jalen quietly having an excellent rookie season, I’d say 2nd best but Mathurin has been pretty good too (albeit not very efficient and pretty one dimensional).

Jalen has great touch around the rim, good enough shooter that you can project an average to slightly above as a pull-up jump shooter. Nice functional handle, good PnR passer.

Not great defensively yet but the effort is there.

If you want to get in before the hype better stack those hoops bass. But seriously, watch a thunder game, he’s awesome

He’s excellent. I tried to get the 1/1 Hoops RC from Packman but he wasn’t selling. As an OKC resident, I’m over the moon with the pick.

He's Oladipo light right now. I think he can have a longer boom window than Vic did.

He's playing with a ton of freedom in OKC and he is pretty fun to watch.

Indy Vic was really fun to watch. Too bad he could never stay healthy.

I remember Oladipo being more dynamic of an athlete and shot creator. I'll have to go back and rewatch some 17-18 clips to refresh my memory

Oladipo pre injury for Indiana was special. Jalen has the tools to be disruptive on defense. He’s already putting up good steal #s

7'2 wingspan on a guard is pretty nice to have!

I watch OKC every night and every night he does something amazing, He's going to be the 2nd star in OKC.

Jcard was correct on this call. OKC is stacked with studs, this guy might be just behind Shai when it all plays out.

Well done OP

It'll end up being SGA and JDub as 1 and 2 with Giddey being an elite facilitator. Going to be awesome to watch. They don't get many national tv games, but if Chet is as advertised, they'll be a top 5 seed in the west next year. SGA has been a superstar for the better half of the year. Hopefully first team all league. JDub isn't far behind him..

[hermanotarjeta]

Along with cam Thomas, another excellent call.

You have the talent to get wealthy with this basketball prospecting thing.

Have you ever failed badly on any player?

J-Dub has been my favorite all season long. I’ve been obsessed really. Since the very first pre-season game, I’ve screamed to anyone that would listen, that I thought he would be the biggest impact RC in OKC since Harden. He is already quickly climbing my favorite All-Time Thunder player list, yet he’s only 1 season in. I’ve been asking for his cards in the Buy/Sell forum, but it’s been crickets……

Until then, I’ve been grabbing his jerseys, and shoes from the Thunder, and my son has been getting them signed.

That's pretty sweet! Seems like OKC is getting that similar growing buzz they did back when they had KD/Russ/Harden in those early seasons. Was fun to go to games when I lived in OK at the time. I imagine it's trending that way again.

This is awesome. Is there an auction site you get the jerseys and shoes from?

[JustinVerlander07]

Paolo is gonna win ROY, but it should be Willams. He's just been better.

Credit to jcard for sniffing this out before the draft. Dude is legit.

At least you have some cards of one of the league leaders in charges taken! Pretty cool stat for a rookie...

Combination of sorts. I’m a season ticket holder, so always asking my rep for hook ups, always down on the court before games getting signatures, and asking for items, and then the team also holds a “shoe raffle” every year, so I always buy in big, and trade away stuff that I don’t Want/need for other guys that I really want. I’ve been at it since day 1 for the Thunder back in 2008. Went pretty hard in the early years with KD, Westbrook and Harden. Jalen Williams is the first guy since those 3, that gives me that tingle in my britches! So I have really gone pretty hard in the paint this season trying to get investment level pieces for J-Dub in my collection. He is the real deal.

[jcardstore]

Filthy, that is awesome!!! Shoes/Jerseys are way better than cards.

It's a shame there just aren't many cards of his to go around right now.

I had a feeling the guy was the real deal just going back and watching him play pre-draft but he's way better than I thought he would be at this point. The efficiency is insane for a rookie.

OKC gonna be really interesting next year with him, Shai and Chet. Thunder have been really fun this year

I'm still mad at him for burning Ayo.

[Jwax13]

I’ve been going pretty hard on Jdub singles. This one will be hard to top.

That's amazing. I've been an OKC fan since 2008, but in Ohio. Usually go to a few away games every year, but looking forward to hitting 2 games in Loud City next year! Love watching JDub play. This team will be special
