Locked On Thunder - Daily Podcast On The Oklahoma City Thunder

Rylan Stiles (@Rylan_Stiles on Twitter) dives into the Al Horford trades from Philly to the Oklahoma City Thunder and the OKC Thunder to the Boston Celtics as the Celtics reach the 2022 NBA Finals against the Golden State Warriors. What really went down between the Thunder and Horford? Did OKC make the right moves with Al Horford? Plus, Oklahoma City has begun their NBA Draft workouts, let's take a look at the list so far and explain the 2022 NBA Draft process. The Thunder and General Manager Sam Presti have a ton of decisions to make regarding Lu Dort, Mike Muscala, Theo Maledon, Isaiah Roby, Aaron Wiggins, Vit Krejci, and Kenrich Williams this offseason plus with the NBA Draft and NBA Summer League coming up what are key dates to watch for? Finally, Vasilije Micic wants to come over to the NBA, but the Thunder have little to no leverage so do not expect a huge haul in return for Micic in a trade this NBA Offseason.
