Recently, OKC traded Timothe Luwawu-Cabarrot to Chicago, this move saved them a lot of cash but opened up another spot on the roster. Their GM Sam Presti waited until after the deadline and now it looks like they'll sign a player bought out by another team, as he did last year with the addition of Corey Brewer. If it wasn't for the financial limitations, the following players were a good option for OKC.

The Thunder should've gone for a young shooter like Tomas Satoransky. Playing for the Washington Wizards, he averages 8 PPG, 43 percent 3-PT FG, 78.9 percent FT.

Reggie Bullock was also a good choice for Oklahoma City as he is only 27 years of age and is a good shooter. He averages 12.0 PPG, 38 percent 3-PT FG, 87.5 percent FT. Bullock was traded to the Lakers in exchange for Sviatoslav Mykhailiuk and a future second-round draft pick.

A backup to Adams would've also been beneficial for depth. The Thunder are already in a strong position, but additional shooting could help make the team better and lead them to the Finals.
