The Thunder need to find another scorer, despite the fact that Russell Westbrook will be back and healt, his injury exposed how limited the rest of the offense outside of Kevin Durant was. Muhammad is a pure scorer who will hunt his own shot with the ball, without the ball, and on the glass. He plays with energy that will be perfect as a scorer off the bench for Oklahoma City. Plus his ability is draw fouls will make a team great at that even better.
C.J. McCollom, SG Lehigh Sr. (6-3, 197)
The same can be said for McCollom, another big time scorer who can create his own shot, which is what the Thunder need. McCollom might not fit as well as Muhammad because of all the players in the Thunder back court, between Westbrook, Reggie Jackson, Jeremy Lamb, and Thabo Sefolosha not to mention Free Agent Kevin Martin. You can't have too much talent, however.
Cody Zeller, PF Indiana So. (7-0, 230)
If Zeller falls to here, the Thunder will have to think long and hard about adding a scoring big like him, especially if Kendrick Perkins is amnestied. Zeller would fit in nicely as a bench scorer for the Thunder and give them a post presence they've really lacked as long as they've been in Oklahoma City.
Steven Adams, C Pittsburgh Fr. (7-0, 255)
The Thunder have been a really well run organization, but one place they've struggled is raw college big men. Both Byron (don't call me B.J.) Mullens and Cole Aldrich have been all and out busts and are no longer on the team. Steven Adams will be the next in that line if they take him. He's very raw, especially offensively, and is years away from his potential.
Sergey Karasev, SG Russia (6-7, 195)
Another prospect who could help the Thunder offensively is Karasev. Though he isn't the scorer McCollom and Muhmmad are, he's a knockdown shooter and a very good passer. The kind of player you put on the floor who makes everyone else better by spacing the floor and moving the ball.
