29 : Oklahoma City Thunder select Allen Crabbe, SG, California
The Thunder got a rotational big man with there first selection in the first round. Now they need to look at getting another scorer off the bench.
A lot of what they do with this pick could depend on what happens with free agent Kevin Martin. Martin who came off the bench at the shooting guard position, played particularly well for them. If Martin does decide to sign elsewhere, the Thunder will need a guy to come off the bench behind Thabo Sefolosha and provide scoring. Crabbe is an excellent 3 point shooter and does well coming off screens.
