So happy!
Glad you’re still home❤
Love Dort but it makes no sense to keep him we need people that can actually score consistently
Never doubt Sam the man!
Now we can trade him!
Thunder and it's fans are a bunch of clowns
Why are the F are we keeping dort? He's been AWFUL this season. We was a total liability on offense and defense. Why are riskibg losing Wallace and going to the 2nd apron for dort? He literally shot us out the the games and couldn't even stop a nosebleed.
Im flabbergastedat presti. OKC'Sloyaltyto dort is out of hand.
Dort be be traded..
Yay!!! I was worried about the money and was expecting Dort to be traded. So glad we get to keep him 🥰
