The Oklahoma City Thunder announced that they have signed Olivier Sarr to a second 10-day deal on Sunday. Sarr initially signed his first 10-day deal as a hardship exception as the team dealt with a health and safety protocols outbreak.
The 22-year-old big appeared in just two games with the Thunder and has averaged 7.1 points and 4.8 rebounds in 14 games with the Oklahoma City Blue. Sarr went undrafted in the 2021 NBA Draft and was signed by the Thunder this past October.
Sarr’s size at seven foot adds some intrigue to his game but overall he is very much a work in progress. The Thunder do not have a true center on the roster outside of Derrick Favors, so it will be interesting to see how much run Sarr gets during the next 10 days.
The Thunder play the Denver Nuggets on Sunday at home.
