OKC Thunder player grades – start east road trip with oust of Detroit

Returning from injury there was uncertainty over precisely what Terrance Ferguson would be able to offer in terms of production or minutes.  But, if TFerg is going to pass the ball like this the rest of the season I’ll be tickled pink. He only had one shot, but it wasn’t like previous games where he was caught standing around. Instead, he was actively cutting and moving and seeking out the best shot.

Perhaps his time on the sidelines while out injured helped him gauge what was required from him. Or maybe he can feel the hot breath of the other wing men who are anxious to claim the starting spot from him. Either way, I’ll take this TFerg every game – 4 assists, 3 rebounds, 1 steal, 1 block and a plus 16 (only lower than the other starters because he played some garbage time minutes).
