The Oklahoma City Thunder have
signed center Bismack Biyombo to a minimum deal, according to
The Athletic’s Shams Charania.
The move gives the young Thunder
another much-needed veteran presence and additional frontcourt
depth as they prepare for a playoff push this season. OKC currently
has a 35-17 record, good for fourth-best in the Western
Conference.
Biyombo, 31, played 30 games for
the Memphis Grizzlies this season before getting waived. He
averaged 5.2 points and 6.4 rebounds, and he is expected to shore
up a Thunder frontline that only features Rookie-of-the-Year
candidate Chet Holmgren and second-year big man Jaylin
Williams.
