Even though the Thunder traded for Paul George last week, who averaged 23.7 points per game last season while shooting 46.1 percent from the field and 39.3 percent from three-point range, Gay still has interest in joining the new-look Thunder. HoopsHype has strung together the timeline of his connection with the Thunder, which started in the 2016-2017 season when the Thunder expressed interest in pairing him with Russell Westbrook after Kevin Durant’s departure. Even if Gay was willing to play in Cleveland and go after a ring, he has strong interest in playing for the Oklahoma City Thunder.
