Powerful dunks over opposing players aren’t exactly what the Oklahoma City Thunder had in mind they acquired Enes Kanter at the trade deadline. But it’s safe to say the Thunder will take such aggression and efficiency from their new starting center, especially if it comes with the back-to-basket prowess that made him so attractive to Scott Brooks’ team in the first place.
And look who fed Kanter for his first points with the Thunder, too – Kyle Singler. Both players started in their Oklahoma City debuts and have acquitted themselves well in the early going against the Charlotte Hornets.
And with Kevin Durant sidelined while nursing his sore right foot, the Thunder need them to continue doing so.
