Thunder rookie commits blunder in Summer League game

Oklahoma City Thunder rookie Erik Reynolds II committed quite a blunder during his Summer League debut on Thursday.

The Thunder beat the Brooklyn Nets 90-81 in their Summer League game Thursday at Thomas & Mack Center in Las Vegas, Nev. Reynolds went 1/3 shooting for two points in 12 minutes, but those stats don’t count one other basket he made.

Late in the third quarter, Reynolds recovered a jump ball and then shot the ball into the basket. Unfortunately, he had shot into the wrong basket, which gave the Nets two points.

Look away Thunder fans 😭

Reynolds realized his mistake immediately and put his hands to his head as if to say “what have I done?” Fortunately for him, the mistake didn’t have too high of stakes or consequences. OKC won the game and is 1-0.

Reynolds signed with the Thunder to play on their Summer League team. He played college ball at Saint Joseph’s and is the school’s all-time leader in points (2,175), three-pointers made (350) and free throw percentage (86.8). He is already adding to his impressive legacy.
