2023 NBA draft: OKC Thunder select Keyontae Johnson with the No. 50 pick

The Oklahoma City Thunder selected Kansas State forward Keyontae Johnson with the No. 50 pick in the second round of the 2023 NBA draft.

The 23-year-old spent five seasons in college. He played in Florida his first four seasons before transferring to Kansas State for his final season. In 36 games last season, he averaged 17.4 points on 51.6% shooting, 6.8 rebounds and 2.1 assists. He shot 40.5% from 3 on an average of 3.2 attempts per game.

The Thunder completed their draft haul with Johnson and Kentucky guard Cason Wallace, whom OKC traded with the Dallas Mavericks to move up to No. 10 to select.

Johnson will likely be added to the Thunder’s roster with the third two-way spot the league recently added following CBA negotiations.
