Thunder rookie big man Aleksej Pokusevski has averaged 17.4 MPG in 17 appearances but he’s headed to Orlando to join the G League’s Oklahoma City Blue, according to Joe Mussatto of The Oklahoman. The 17th overall pick, who played 20 minutes in a blowout loss to Houston on Monday, is shooting just 24.7% from the field and the Thunder want him to develop his offensive game. Guard Ty Jerome and two-way players Moses Brown and Josh Hall are also going to Orlando. “A lot of time and effort has gone into deciding who to send and when to send them,” coach Mark Daigneault said. “We felt like sending the four of them together, all for different reasons developmentally, was the best decision.”
