3 years agoOklahoma City Thunder center Isaiah Roby (ankle) has been cleared to play in Friday's contest against the 76ers and head coach Mark Daigneault has confirmed that he will be a member of the team's rotation. Roby has not seen game action since Jan. 2 due to a sprained right ankle. With the OKC frontcourt currently down Mike Muscala (ankle), Roby has the opportunity to step into a sizable role in the near future. Prior to being injured, Roby had made four consecutive starts for the Thunder; on the season, he has shot 56 percent from the floor overall. While he remains on the outside looking in of season-long relevance at this stage, Roby is a name to watch in deeper formats come the second half of the year.--Jesse Borek
