I think he is in the starting front line next season.

Whether if that's C or PF, I guess that depends on who is still on the team. Presti has been very, very quiet this last week. It wouldn't surprise me to see him pull the trigger on a trade.

But back to next season, with these kids being so young a lot can happen over the summer. If Durant can add another 15 pounds or so he might end up playing PF on the defensive side of the ball.

We could see a front line of
C Ibaka
PF Durant
SF Green

or maybe
C ???
PF Serge
SF Durant
6th man Green

Defensively the kid is way ahead of the curve for his age. Offensively the guy is far from a finished product, but not hopeless. He has shown he can hit a jumper, but he has also shown he can throw up a bunch of bricks. I would think in time he could polish up his jumper some to be a little more consistent.

My one complaint is that, I wish he would try to pack it more instead or trying to lay it up at times.

Hopefully we can add another PF/C type next to him and make rebounding and shot blocking a strong aspect of the thunders Culture

Lots of big men in this draft depends were we land .... in playoffs
still can add a quality bigman

I love this guy. He is going to be a monster on defense and on the boards. Offensively I'm still skeptical on him but he does show a decent jumper on occasion, and is a much better passer than when he started this year so he is a quick learner.
