[Stein] After Michael Winger’s hiring to take over the Wizards’ front office, longtime Thunder executive Will Dawkins is expected to emerge as a strong candidate to join him, due in part to his time working alongside Winger in Oklahoma City.

I’m slamming my desk at work and chanting “REBUILD” over and over right now
He’s gonna be the official GM then?
everyone get their hard hats ready it’s gonna be a construction site here
If this is the case, sign KP and Kuz to extensions and then move them mid-season when allowed. Maximum asset management and tear that fucker down!

> **Will Dawkins, 35, Thunder VP of basketball operations**
Dawkins seems like the next Thunder front-office executive to get an opportunity to run his own team, following in the footsteps of Rob Hennigan and Troy Weaver, and has already been identified as a [potential future GM](https://theathletic.com/2127698/2020/10/21/nba-agents-survey-jimmy-butler-jamal-murray-top-players-trade-talk/). He started in the video room and has since spent 14 seasons in Oklahoma City, and now has an integral role alongside Sam Presti.
A real FO… what the hell is going on
