Summary

Jayden Quaintance, a forward from Kentucky, participated in a predraft workout with the Oklahoma City Thunder. The workout comes shortly after the Thunder's Game 7 loss to the San Antonio Spurs. Quaintance, an 18-year-old who transferred from Arizona State, has faced injury issues that limited his playtime last season. Despite these challenges, he is viewed as a potential lottery pick, and the Thunder may consider selecting him with the No. 12 overall pick in the upcoming draft.
