Ousmane Dieng posted a full line on Tuesday with 20 points (8-of-18 FGs), five rebounds, five assists, one steal, one block and four 3-pointers against Utah.
Third year players are supposed to dominate Summer League, but that wasn’t the case in Dieng’s first game on Monday. However, he was much better in his second appearance. He’s still only 21 years old, and he was initially seen as a high-upside wing, so it isn’t surprising that he hasn’t played a consistent role for OKC so far. If he continues to play like he did in this game, there may still be hope for him. However, if he turns in more outings like he did in Monday’s loss, it will be difficult to still believe in him.
