Oklahoma City Thunder
The Thunder are one of the youngest teams in the league and while they may only have 20 wins this year, Oklahoma City has proven that the future is bright for them.
Shai Gilgeous-Alexander is the face of the franchise right now and with the Thunder striking gold by drafting Josh Giddey this past year, they will not look to turn their attention to their frontcourt.
Having multiple draft picks, we should expect the Thunder to bring in one or two young big men as additions in their frontcourt, but they could also look to target a young center in Mitchell Robinson with all of their cap space.
It is reasonable to believe that a three-year contract worth $30 million to $40 million is fair value for Robinson and should this be in the ballpark of his asking price, this is a very do-able and a very intriguing deal for the Thunder to offer.

He may not be much of a scoring threat, but Mitchell Robinson can hold his own in the low-post and is one of the league’s more underrated rebounders, making him the perfect big man for the Thunder to target.
Maybe they will end up with another top pick in the draft and be able to go after Gonzaga’s Chet Holmgren, who is projected to be one of the top prospects in the 2022 draft class, but Mitchell Robinson would be a smart target for them.
