The Thunder are getting great production from their rookie center Aday Mara, proving how important the San Antonio Spurs' interior depth will be in this rivalry.
Ty Small argues that rookie center Aday Mara's strong preseason play makes the San Antonio Spurs' interior depth vital against the Oklahoma City Thunder. Mara scored 34 points on 15-for-15 shooting across his first two preseason games, adding further size to a frontcourt that already features Chet Holmgren and Isaiah Hartenstein.
Small writes that Victor Wembanyama needs support to avoid playing excessive minutes when facing OKC's frontcourt. The writer suggests Spurs backup centers Luke Kornet, Jayden Quaintance, and Tarris Reed Jr. must step up, noting Reed previously matched up against Mara in the NCAA Championship game.
