Poku played great off the bench for the Thunder. With Mann entering the starting lineup, Poku slid into the sixth-man role for this game. He scored 15 points on an efficient 6-of-11 from the field, including 3-of-5 from three. Although there were many instances of Poku being the primary ball handler for possessions, which resulted in four turnovers for him on the night. However, I don’t think that takes away too much from what was a great game for Poku.
The best player for the Los Angeles Clippers in their 118-110 loss to the Oklahoma City Thunder.
Norman Powell led the Clippers in scoring with 21 points while shooting 9-of-15 from the field. When George couldn’t get it going offensively, Powell took on the responsibility of the primary scorer, and he did a pretty good job. Just not enough to lead the Clips over the Thunder.
Conclusion
This young Thunder team is now 2-3 on the year, and although their schedule is filled with top teams, they have shown that they can play any team and walk out with an upset win.
