Thunder picks up team option on Lu Dort

The Thunder have confirmed, mainly through Sam Presti (general manager), that they have picked up the team option on Lu Dort. The team option is set for $1.9 million dollars for the upcoming season.

The 23-year-old have been climbing up the ranks with improving numbers each season – since coming into the league in 2019. He went from 6.8 points (rookie season) to 17.2 points (last season), huge increase and something that deserves a new contract.

Last season, in 51 games, he averaged 17/4/1 per game. His last played game was on February 12th with a shoulder injury, which required season-ending surgery.
