Denver Nuggets, Oklahoma City Thunder and NBA
Digest more
The Oklahoma City Thunder were impacted by the NBA Draft Lottery that shook up the 2025 NBA Draft in more than one way.
While the Oklahoma City Thunder are busy with their Round 2 playoff series against the Denver Nuggets, the 2025 NBA draft lottery was revealed. The randomness always creates chaos. It happened again as the Dallas Mavericks landed the No. 1 pick and will likely add Cooper Flagg.
Not even an astounding performance from Nikola Jokić was enough to defeat the Oklahoma City Thunder on Tuesday.
Denver was last in the league in 3-point attempts per game during the regular season (31.9), but that number has jumped to 38.5 3PA in the four contests against OKC. In their first-round series versus the LA Clippers, the Nuggets fired up an average of just 29.0 3PA across seven games.
