Squad Weaknesses
OKC's biggest weakness is shooting. The Thunder ranked 24th in the league last year in three-point percentage. They were also one of just five playoff teams to have three players or less who shoot better than 36% from beyond the arc.
They didn’t really seem to solve this problem, since none of the players they added this offseason has a reliable shot. Both Schröder and Luwawu-Cabarrot averaged less than 34% from three-point range for their careers so far and Diallo has to adjust to the NBA's three-point line. Nader did shoot just under 36% for the Celtics last year, but he averaged less than 1.5 three-point attempts per game.
Another problem OKC had last year was bench scoring, averaging 26.4 points per game, second-worst record in the league. Grant, who was the primary scorer off the bench, will likely be a starter for the team this year, meaning someone else will have to take his job. It will most likely be Schröder, who averaged 11 points a-night as a backup PG for the Hawks in 2015-16, but will have to re-adjust after playing as a starter for the past two years.
