The Oklahoma City Thunder basketball players defeated the Charlotte Hornets in one of the scrimmage games, in the prelude to the NBA season 2025/26, and the Serbian player Nikola Topić made a fine contribution to that convincing victory (135:114) last night.
The young member of the Thunder spent 32 minutes on the court and during that time scored 10 points (4/12 from the field) and recorded seven assists, as well as four rebounds, with one steal and three turnovers. Moreover, the coach included him in the starting lineup.

All of this together indicates that his club is seriously counting on their talented first-team player in his first “real” season in the strongest league in the world, as he missed the previous one due to a serious injury. He is now proving that he is ready and motivated.
He was also available for the European Championship this summer, but was dropped from the final list of former coach Svetislav Pešić at the last minute, so we did not see him during the “Eagles” fiasco at the biggest continental competition.
Otherwise, the most efficient player for the Oklahoma team in the last game was Aaron Wiggins with 23 points, while Chris Youngblood added 20. For the Charlotte team, Kon Knueppel stood out with 18 points.
