The Oklahoma City Thunder continue their preseason schedule with a game against the NBL’s Adelaide 36ers — Josh Giddey’s former NBL club before he was drafted.
This game will mark the second night of a preseason back-to-back following Wednesday’s two-point loss to the Dallas Mavericks in Tulsa, Oklahoma.
The 36ers defeated the Phoenix Suns in a preseason game earlier this week, so Giddey and company know not to take their opponent lightly.
Giddey sat the entire second half of the Mavericks game, likely ensuring he will play against his former club despite it being a back-to-back.
