The 2012 NBA Draft gets underway on Thursday night with teams looking to improver their roster for the future. The Oklahoma City Thunder have only one pick in the draft and that comes late in the first round at No. 28 overall. Finding a player there who can contribute will be difficult.
With the Thunder making it all the way to the NBA Finals they are looking good for the future, but they still need to find players through the draft to help them contribute sooner rather than later.
