4 years agoOklahoma City Thunder forward Aleksej Pokusevski put on a shooting clinic in Wednesday's loss to Charlotte, posting a franchise rookie record with seven triples and finishing with a career-high 25 points on 9-for-14 shooting overall. He flirted with a double-double by ending up with nine rebounds, and the 19-year-old rookie also dished out four assists with three turnovers in 33 minutes. Pokusevski has slowly started to sort out his shooting and has gone for at least 19 points in four of his past five appearances. The Thunder are giving him all the minutes he can handle, and the youngster has started to move towards a big finish to the season. He'll be back out there on Thursday against a Cleveland team that ranks 21st in defensive efficiency.--Taavi Pailk - RotoBaller
