The NBA fined both Dennis Schroder and Terry Rozier $25,000 for their conduct during the Oklahoma City Thunder's 104-102 overtime win over the Charlotte Hornets. 

Schroder was fined for intentionally making contact with an official.

Rozier was fined for throwing the game ball into the stands at the end of regulation. 

Dennis Schröder and Kyle Lowry have been named the NBA's Players of the Week for Week 9 of the 19-20 season.

Schröder averaged 25.3 points, 6.0 assists and 5.3 rebounds as the Oklahoma City Thunder went 4-0.

Lowry averaged 24.5 points, 10.0 assists and 6.5 rebounds as the Toronto Raptors went 4-0.

Chris Paul is unlikely to be traded by the Oklahoma City Thunder during the 19-20 season. The Thunder acquired Paul in the Russell Westbrook trade and were unable to move him to another team during the offseason.

"There is no belief in Oklahoma City or even in the CP3 camp that there's going to be a trade for him," said Adrian Wojnarowski. "After the season, another year off that giant contract maybe. He's played well for them. They're resigned that he'll be there."

Paul has two more seasons on his four-year, $160 million contract signed in 2018.

According to people close to Sam Presti, his relationship with ownership of the Oklahoma City Thunder is at a place where he would be allowed to leave the franchise for another job should he prefer to do so.

Presti has been general manager of the Thunder since 2007.

Presti has been mentioned in the media as a potential candidate for the New York Knicks.

The Oklahoma City Thunder will sign Kevin Hervey to a Two-Way contract.

Hervey had a strong season in 18-19 with the Oklahoma City Blue.

The Thunder previously waived Devon Hall from his Two-Way contract.

The Oklahoma City Thunder has waived guard Devon Hall.

Originally signed to a Two-Way Contract on Sept. 4, Hall appeared in five games for the Thunder this season and totaled five points and three assists in 20 minutes of action. In three games (all starts) with the Oklahoma City Blue, he averaged 8.3 points, 5.0 rebounds and 3.3 assists in 31.2 minutes per game

The Portland Trail Blazers are expected to pursue a trade for Danilo Gallinari, according to sources.

The Blazers have long been linked in the media to Gallinari, but it had been unclear what type of interest they would have in him after signing Carmelo Anthony.

Gallinari is on an expiring contract and is unlikely to remain with the Oklahoma City Thunder long-term.

Kevin Love would prefer getting traded to the Portland Trail Blazers, league sources told Kevin O'Connor of The Ringer.

O'Connor also mentions the Nuggets and the Suns as potential teams that could trade for Love.

A potential deal for Love could also include Tristan Thompson, who is available in a deal.

The Blazers are expected to pursue Danilo Gallinari to fill their power forward position.

At least one high-ranking official with the New York Knicks visited Carmelo Anthony before his trade to the Oklahoma City Thunder to try to convince him to stay with the franchise.

Anthony believed it was time to part ways after what had happened during the 16-17 season with Phil Jackson. Jackson had already exited the franchise by that point.

The Knicks acquired Enes Kaner, Doug McDermott and a second round pick that turned into Mitchell Robinson for Anthony.

The Oklahoma City Thunder have potential interest in absorbing burdensome salary in trades, including long-term deals.

Oklahoma City is in a transitional period following their trades of Paul George and Russell Westbrook.

Chris Paul, Steven Adams, Dennis Schröder and Danilo Gallinari could draw interest on the trade market.

The Thunder could acquire additional assets for their impending rebuild by taking on salary.
