OKC Thunder rumored promise to Matisse Thybulle fits Presti prototype but should raise red flags
Three consecutive first round playoff ousts aren’t palatable for a team with two superstars. And, while you can debate why the team lost there is no question a lack of perimeter shooting is a key concern which Presti absolutely has to address this offseason.
As for where Thybulle ranks on some of the main sites, the Ringer has him ranked 24th where the 76ers will pick and Bleacher Report has the Bucks selecting him 30th. Clearly, there are certain commonalities among pundits profiles of the prospects. But punctuating just how uncertain this process is the Ringer offers a comparison of his ability to Danny Green, Gary Harris, and Tony Allen.
If he translated into matching Green or Harris that would be wonderful but his perimeter shooting is more relatable to Allen who has a 28.2 career perimeter average. Not exactly something to jump up and down over.
