The Ok City Thunder hosted Trae Young and the Atlanta Hawks last night inside the Paycom Center.
OKC gave up a franchise record 85 points to Atlanta in the first half and never threatened in a 136-118 defeat. Young scored 41 and dished out 8 assists. His Norman North High school teammate Lindy Waters scored a career high 25 for the Thunder, knocked down 7 of 13 from behind the arc.
Ok City gets the night off before hosting Detroit in a must lose game tomorrow night if they want any chance at a bottom 3 record and the best chance at the #1 pick.
