  • Thunder's Branden Carlson: Gets another 10-day deal

    Carlson re-signed Wednesday with the Thunder on a second 10-day contract, Clemente Almanza of USA Today reports.

    Carlson was previously waived off the 15-man roster Jan. 7 in anticipation of two-way player Ajay Mitchell being upgraded to a standard contract. Still, that plan was put on hold after Mitchell suffered a turf toe sprain that will keep him sidelined for multiple months. Once Carlson cleared waivers, the Thunder quickly brought him back on a 10-day deal to fill the open roster spot. After re-signing to another 10-day pact, Carlson will be in the fold through Jan. 31 before Oklahoma City would have to either sign him to a rest-of-season deal or let him walk. Carlson has appeared in 13 games for the Thunder thus far, averaging 2.8 points and 1.8 rebounds in 6.2 minutes per contest.

  • Branden Carlson: Contract expires

    Carlson's 10-day contract with the Thunder expired Monday, Keith Smith of Spotrac.com reports.

    Carlson had appeared in each of Oklahoma City's last six games, averaging 5.5 points, 2.3 rebounds and 0.7 blocks in 9.0 minutes per contest. Unless Isaiah Hartenstein (calf) is cleared to play for the start of the Thunder's back-to-back set Wednesday and Thursday, Oklahoma City will likely look to bring Carlson back on a second 10-day deal to bolster their depth in the frontcourt in the short term.

  • Thunder's Branden Carlson: Makes return in garbage time

    Carlson (concussion) recorded zero points (0-1 FG, 0-1 3Pt), one rebound and one turnover while playing the final four minutes of Sunday's 130-106 win over the Grizzlies.

    Carlson hadn't played for the Thunder or the G League's Oklahoma City Blue since Dec. 10 after entering the concussion protocol, but he received the green light to suit up Sunday after having missed the NBA club's last three contests. His appearance was contained to the waning minutes of a blowout, and the rookie will likely continue to see most of his playing time with the Thunder in such scenarios throughout the season.
