3. Reggie Jackson

Out of everyone on this list, Jackson has the most talent other than Westbrook. He just couldn’t fit in with the roster.

Jackson played point guard for the Thunder in his first three and a half seasons in the league. He was lucky enough to start in 53 games during that span. Jackson averaged 13 points and 4 assists a game in his last full season, but he was traded to Detroit at the 2015 Trade Deadline.

Jackson would be higher (#2) on this list if he did not butt heads with EVERYONE-especially Russ-in Oklahoma City. The rivalry continues to this day, with Jackson tweeting after the Western Conference Finals and Westbrook being Westbrook.
