Yeah.
Okay.
Andrew board is yours.
Number one.
Question number one.
With all the talk about tanking this month, let's take a look back at one of the more infamous tanking games in OKC history, the Daniel Oteru game.
Yeah.
It was May 16th, 2021, and the 47 and 24 Los Angeles Clippers were trying to avoid a first round matchup with defending champion Lakers.
Their final game of the season was against the Oklahoma City Thunder, who were in the midst of a 2-26 run to end the season, but needed to lose one more game to guarantee better odds than the Cleveland Cavaliers.
It was a tank battle for the ages, with Los Angeles giving Daniel Otero 37 minutes and letting him shoot 21 times, of which he made five.
The game would end in a Clippers loss, a loss that would propel them to the franchise's only conference finals appearance.
For this question, we are going to name every Thunder player who played at least one minute in the Daniel Oturu game.
Starting with Andrew, we'll go back and forth naming names until one of you stumbles.
Alexei Pokushevsky.
That is correct.
Melvin Frazier.
Rylan, no.
Bad Rylan.
Once upon a time, there was a blog post written about how the Thunder didn't need Evan Mobley because they had... Moses Brown.
Wow.
