Third-year option exercised by OKC

Sorber has yet to appear in a game for the Thunder after the franchise selected him with the 15th overall pick in the 2025 NBA Draft. He's still without a clear timetable to return to the court and is considered week-to-week, but the injury-riddled Oklahoma City roster can use any help it can get.

Thunder pick up fourth-year option

McCain has appeared in 96 regular-season games for the 76ers and Oklahoma City since entering the league in 2024. In those appearances, he has averaged 10.2 points, 2.3 rebounds and 2.2 assists over 19.8 minutes per contest. The 22-year-old was an early favorite to win the Rookie of the Year award in 2024-25, though a knee injury prematurely ended his season. He was expected to play a prominent role off the bench for the Thunder throughout the 2026-27 campaign. However, with Oklahoma City down Chet Holmgren (knee), Jalen Williams (leg) and Cason Wallace (shoulder), McCain has been seeing the floor as a starter. That should continue moving forward, so he could be in line for his best year to date.

Struggles from deep in start

McCain started and logged 28 minutes, but it was an inefficient night as he missed all five of his three-point attempts. With Chet Holmgren (knee), Jalen Williams (leg) and Cason Wallace (shoulder) all expected to miss at least two months, the Thunder's rotation is in flux. McCain should keep getting meaningful run, but his value depends heavily on whether his shot is falling.
