Grading Thunder players in bounce back win over 76ers
Grades for the best player off the bench:
Tre Mann led the second unit in scoring for the OKC Thunder and was hot as soon as he came in the game, making four of his first five shot attempts. Although he cooled off, he still finished the game scoring 14 points off the bench.
Grades for the best opposing player:
It’s hard to critique a player when he drops 30 points and 10 rebounds, but a lot of people were expecting Embiid to have a career night against a smaller, shorthanded OKC squad. He shot 10-for-17 from the field and was a perfect 10-for-10 from the free-throw line.
