With the alteration of the starting lineup deep into the postseason before the team's departure, Oklahoma City's starting core could look slightly different next year.

As the Thunder roll into the offseason, there are just a few question marks tagged to this young Oklahoma City team.

Expectations are that Giddey could be moved over the course of the next few months, but general manager Sam Presti has a tendency of zigging when he was hypothetically supposed to zag. Putting the house on it, I'd imagine Giddey still holds a roster spot into next year. That effect wasn't impactful it seemed until Game 6 where the Thunder were sent home, as Game 5 saw a 25.0% outing from 3-point range which led into a 36.6% outing into the following contest. These were Joe's second and third starts on the entire season, illuminating the need for a jumpstart from beyond the arc in two games with great implications.
