Best OKC Reserve:

Nice offensive game for Dennis Schroder tonight. He scored 24 points off of the OKC Thunder bench as he was the only offensive spark the Thunder seemed to have all evening. Schroder also pitched in two rebounds.

Best Opponent:

Kawhi Leonard was his normal, efficient self tonight for the LA Clippers. Leonard scored 25 points on 9 of 20 to pace his team.

The superstar added eight rebounds, one assist and two steals. He makes the game of basketball seem so easy that it is honestly unfair. With his help, the Clippers are this scribe’s pick to come out of the Western Conference. They are very impressive and very formidable.

Quick turnaround for the OKC Thunder as they travel to Detroit tomorrow as they take on the Pistons on the second night of a back-to-back. For a full box score of tonight’s game, head over to this link courtesy of ESPN.
