In today's NBA regular season game, the Oklahoma Thunder, who played at home, narrowly defeated the Portland Trail Blazers 98-94 after a hard battle. During the game, the Thunder lineup was seriously disorganized, with only 7 players in total making their debuts in the game. And these 7 players also include a number of faces that are very unfamiliar to everyone. Here's specific information about all the Players who played in the Thunder in this game and their salary status:
Isaiah Roby: Second round show, salary $1.78 million
Vit Krejci: Second round show, $925,000
Olivier Sarr: Two-way contract player with a salary of $463,000
Lindy Waters III: Two-way contract player with a salary of $463,000
Jaylen Hoard: Ten-day short-contract player with a salary of $96,000
Zavier Simpson: A 10-day short-contract player with a salary of $53,000
Kalaitzakis Kalaitzakis: A player on a ten-day short contract with a salary of $53,000
Let's roughly summarize that of all the Players who played in this game, only Robbie and Kreich were the rookies selected by the Thunder in the draft and were also regular workers with standard contracts. In addition to them, 4 of the remaining 5 people are not drafted, only Kaletzakis is the last rookie selected by the Bucks in the second round of the 60th pick in this season's draft, 2 are players who have just recently received a two-way contract to smoothly transition from temporary workers to semi-regular workers, and 3 are even temporary workers just signed by the team.
None of the 7 "heroes" have a contract that is fully guaranteed next season. Robbie's contract is a team option, and Kreic's contract is only partially guaranteed. Given the thunder's explosive picks, even these two second-round picks may not necessarily stay with the Thunder next season. As for the other 5, no one knows what their fate is, and every second of them on the NBA game could be their final performance on this stage.
As for why the Thunder won this game, the reason is actually not complicated, because the opponent's Blazers' roster is not much better than theirs, including 3 temporary workers, 2 players with two-way contracts and multiple base salary players. In this swing war, the Blazers eventually lost to the Thunder with their rich experience.
