Bismack Biyombo, Thunder Agree To Rest Of Season Contract 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Sat Feb 10, 2024 11:51 pm

The Oklahoma City Thunder and free agent center Bismack Biyombo agreed to a rest-of-season contract. Biyombo is joining Oklahoma City to give them some additional frontcourt depth behind Chet Holmgren.


Biyombo played 30 games (27 starts) with the Memphis Grizzlies earlier this season. The veteran center averaged 5.2 points, 6.4 rebounds and 1.1 blocks with the Grizzlies.

I really like what the thunder are doing. How fun would it be to see this team make a real run?

Agreed. Do you know of he’s playoff eligible?

By putting up somewhat solid stat spreads with decent defense? Oh, I'm sorry, you didn't want a real answer.

He’s a solid third string center.
