In his second season with the OKC Thunder, Dennis Schroder is delivering an award worthy season highlighted by five special games and one long bomb.
From buzzer-beaters to scintillating comeback efforts, OKC Thunder guard Dennis Schroder has done it all this season. He’s a marvel on the basketball court who has proven to be one of the biggest differences for OKC in a breakout year.
It’s safe to say that he has truly arrived in the NBA revealing himself as a star who comes off the bench and ignites a spark within his teammates that not many players can do.
Schroder’s phenomenal season has seen him become one of the leading candidates for the Sixth Man of the Year award and in the mix as the OKC Thunder Most Valuable Player.
Though he has some tremendous competition in the likes of Lou Williams and Montrezl Harrell, it is important to note his achievements in his seventh year in the league and just how far he has come.
When Russell Westbrook and Paul George were traded in the past offseason, the future for the organization was unclear other than the fact that people believed it was time for a rebuild.
Not many had imagined a season like this or that Schroder would burst onto the scene. We have witnessed what he is truly capable of and growth in all areas of his game.
The German is averaging 19.0 points, 4.1 assists and 3.7 rebounds on 46.8 field goal and 38.1 perimeter percentage – both of which are career-highs.
In 2019-20 he has provided fans with some unforgettable games and moments. Here are five of his best games this year.
