Oklahoma City Thunder general manager Sam Presti.

OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) – It appears Thunder general manager Sam Presti has turned over a new leaf.

He perhaps is best known for drafting Kevin Durant, James Harden and Russell Westbrook. He usually has added relatively inexpensive players around his stars and built through the draft.

Presti shook the NBA by trading for Carmelo Anthony. The Thunder already had traded for Paul George in the offseason. The man who always has talked about the process has shifted gears and built a super team in a matter of months.
