Sam Presti admitted that he “missed” on the Gordon Hayward midseason acquisition at his end-of-the-season information convention on Tuesday.
“I missed on that. That is on me. However I am studying, I am attempting to study this staff, I am attempting to study the tempo of the staff just a little bit,” stated Presti.
Hayward averaged 5.3 factors in 17.2 minutes throughout his time with the Thunder.
Hayward described his time with the Thunder as ‘disappointing’ final week.
“I do not suppose I learn that one excellent, and I am studying from that when it comes to bringing any person midseason and particularly early on within the course of for our staff,” added Presti.
