After playing two years of Euroleague basketball, Alex Abrines was selected by the OKC Thunder with the 32nd overall pick in the 2013 NBA draft. Abrines was sent back to the Euroleague with Barcelona, although he returned to the Thunder for the 2016/17 NBA season.

Abrines has averaged 16 minutes per game since his NBA debut, although the Spaniard has averaged just 5.4 points-per-game. Despite this, Abrines has been valuable to the Thunder from behind the arc.

The Thunder are among the worst teams in the league when it comes to shooting from range, and aside from All-Star Paul George, Abrines is the team's best distance shooter. Ultimately, Abrines is currently in the final year of a three-year deal worth $18 million, and the Thunder should only look to keep the 25-year-old on a lower salary.
