Steven Adams: Finalizing four-year, $100 million extension with Thunder

After his coming out party during the 2015-16 playoffs, Adams has continued to be one of the Thunder’s most consistent players and over the first three games this season he’s averaged 13.0 points, 9.0 rebounds, 1.0 assist and 2.3 steals over 35 minutes. The Thunder just locked up Victor Oladipo for the next four years as well, so they now have Adams, Oladipo and Russell Westbrook locked up for the forseeable future. Adams will have the opportunity to post career numbers offensively with Kevin Durant no longer with the team, which only adds to his success on the boards and as the team’s biggest defensive presence.
