Jan 24, 2020 — Sam Presti

The decision this board surrounds ultimately brought in Isaiah Roby. Later outcomes never rewrite the board.

OKC on 2020-01-24: the listed basketball needs were rebounding, creation, passing. 1 player(s) were publicly on the market, but none had a source linking this team to them. 0 open-market candidate(s) matched at least one listed need. Market access, basketball fit, price, salary route, and legality remain separate.

Why is he here?

Dewayne Dedmon: Dewayne Dedmon was on the public trade market, but no source linked OKC to him. His strongest observed functions did not match the listed top needs. The minimum outgoing-salary screen was available for a $13,333,334 incoming charge. Exact transaction legality remains withheld without a complete package and exception ledger.

Historical decision board. A public-market player is not presented as a team target without a named team link. Minimum outgoing salary is not exact legality. Missing asking price is not a zero price. Later outcomes do not alter the decision-date board.
