A major rumbling from this offseason is that OKC Thunder superstar Shai Gilgeous-Alexander is looking to lean more into his off-ball abilities heading into 2026-27.
Of course, arguably the most underrated dime dropper on OKC is big man Isaiah Hartenstein, who, quite frankly, could be a key to fully taking advantage of Shai's new on-court development.
Thunder must experiment with using Isaiah Hartenstein as offensive hubHartenstein is far from a lethal offensive talent, particularly in the scoring department, where he boasts career averages of just 7.1 points per game.
During this upcoming campaign, coach Mark Daigneault may want to consider putting them on display on a more consistent basis.
Just imagine how helpful his abilities could be once he gets into games alongside lethal three-level scorers like SGA, J-Dub, and Chet Holmgren.
