Jeremiah Robinson-Earl Appreciation Thread
Posted: Mon Oct 23, 2023 6:45 pm
In two quick seasons with the OKC Thunder, JRE is now sent to Houston. In his place, the OKC group must pay Kevin Porter Jr 15 or so Million and they receive two SRPs. Oladipo's 8M contract also sent off in this trade. So in essence, OKC is paying about 5 million for those two future SRPs.
JRE was a 32nd overall selection in the 2021 Draft and played admirably for the team. I think we all knew he was a kind of stop-gap player until OKC's ceiling improved but he fought hard for those minutes vs Isaiah Roby and Poku
In those two seasons he avg'd 7/5/1A to the tune of 658 points.
I always liked JRE's fundamental moves around the basket, and he did shoot 34% from 3, which isn't great but it's better than 29% .
I often followed the OKC Blue games if they are available and JRE put in work there too. IMO, JRE is a tier above GL talent, a solid bench player for deep minutes. He's not going to win iso matchups vs NBA starters but he can provide reliable play overall.
