Olivier Sarr started and dropped 22 points (10-15 FG, 0-2 3P, 2-4 FT) to go with 15 rebounds, one assist, and one steal across 42 minutes as the Thunder defeated the Grizzlies 115-110 on Sunday.
Fantasy Impact
Sarr got the nominal start on the final game of the regular season, and did not disappoint in his showing. The 24-year-old rookie shot a glistening 66.7% from the field prior to following out in the fourth quarter. Sarr will not be a factor for Oklahoma City in the playoffs, but this showing should give him some confidence heading into next season.
According to Law Murray, Olivier Sarr has been waived by the Thunder on Wednesday.
Fantasy Impact
Across his four games with the Thunder, Sarr averaged 15.5 points, 8.0 rebounds, and 1.8 blocks per game. On Wednesday, the clearly tanking and talent rident Thunder waived the young slasher.
Olivier Sarr recorded 24 points (9-12 FG, 5-6 3PT, 1-1 FT), six rebounds, one assist, and two blocks in 22 minutes off the bench in Sunday's win over the Suns.
Fantasy Impact
Sarr was incredibly efficient en route to a career-high 24 points. The Kentucky product was a mismatch for the Suns' bigs as he was able to stretch the floor with his shooting ability. The young center has now scored in double figures in four consecutive games while averaging 28.3 minutes, 6.3 rebounds, and 1.3 blocks. With the Thunder so shorthanded, Sarr should continue to see more minutes moving forward. The 23-year-old will look to stay red hot when the Thunder host the Trail Blazers on Tuesday.
Olivier Sarr is starting tonight according to Thunder reporter Rylan Stiles.
Fantasy Impact
Sarr is set to make the first start of his career in place of Isaiah Roby when the Thunder take on the Hornets Monday night. The rookie center has had a minimal role thus far since joining the Thunder in December, but this could be a massive opportunity for the 23-year old. It's still yet to be seen what type of workload Sarr will be given, but the Thunder have played around with lineups all year, and it could stand to benefit the Kentucky product down the stretch.
