Shaun Livingston is getting a chance to resurrect his career with the Thunder.

Livingston suffered a serious knee injury in February 2007 and has been cut by both the Clippers and Heat since he began his return.

"I might not have the same quickness, lift and power that I had," Livingston told the Journal Star, "so I have to be a lot smarter out there on the court."

Livingston added that his knee is about 95 percent healthy, and his stamina is improving.

"I want to show people I can be the same player I was, and what I was turning out to be," he added. "I proved I can come back and play. Now it's a matter of, will I just be OK, or can I still be a major player in this game?"
