· Yahoo Sports
The Oklahoma City Thunder have little time to dwell on their shortcomings. They fell in a Game 7 loss to the San Antonio Spurs. But the NBA's year-round business has every team focusing on one thing or the other. Right now, it's the upcoming draft cycle.

For the Thunder, they continue to enjoy the best of both worlds — contending for a Larry O'Brien trophy and doing their homework for a lottery addition. They will enter the 2026 NBA draft with three draft picks — No. 12 via the LA Clippers; No. 17 via the Philadelphia 76ers; and No. 37 via the Dallas Mavericks.
One prospect the Thunder have reportedly met with in a predraft workout is Louisville's J'Vonne Hadley, per Rookie Wire. He played in five collegiate seasons from 2020-26. His first year was at Northeastern. He then took a gap year before transferring to Colorado for two campaigns. Finally, his final two years were with the Cardinals. He averaged 11.5 points on 56.2% shooting, 5.1 rebounds and 1.8 assists in 34 games this past season. He shot 44% from 3 on 2.5 attempts.
The 24-year-old is a 6-foot-7, 210-pound guard. Most NBA mock drafts have him going undrafted. Which means the Thunder can add him on some sorta Summer League deal and then go from there.
The 2026 NBA draft will take place from June 23-24. The Thunder will look to add more young talent to their roster to keep their contending window open as long as possible around Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, Chet Holmgren and Jalen Williams.
