NBA Trade Rumors: 3 players that could leave the Thunder this month

#2 Abdel Nader

Boston Celtics v New York Knicks

Over the summer, the Oklahoma City Thunder made a number of exciting additions such as Dennis Schroder and Nerlens Noel, although the addition of Abdel Nader looked to be a bust from the start. Nader was selected by the Boston Celtics with the 58th overall pick of the 2016 NBA draft, although it took the player over a year to make his NBA breakthrough.

During the 17/18 NBA season, the small forward appeared in 48 games, averaging 3.0 points, 0.5 assists, and 1.5 rebounds per game, although the Celtics knew his skill set was limited and dealt him to the Thunder for Rodney Purvis and cash considerations.

Despite injuries within the Thunder roster, Nader has failed to find a place in Billy Donovan's rotation, and the 25-year-old has only played six minutes in the Thunders last seven matches. Nader is now eligible for a trade, and the Thunder should look to move on the forward in order to free up a spot on their roster.
