Oklahoma City Thunder superstar Shai Gilgeous-Alexander is excited to play alongside Isaiah Hartenstein. He says it gives the Thunder's offense a different look, while Hartenstein has had nothing but positive things to say about his new coach, Mark Daigneault, the team, and the organization.

Oklahoma City made a massive splash on the free agent market this summer, inking Isaiah Hartentein to the largest contract in team history. As the Thunder enter

After the Oklahoma City Thunder landed Isaiah Hartenstein, a celebration ensued. It was the biggest outside addition in the franchise's short history. The small-market squad finally landed a big fish.

A day after Mark Daigneault proclaimed he wants Jalen Williams and Aaron Wiggins to attempt more outside attempts for the 2024-25 season, Isaiah Hartenstein confirmed his inclusion of the 3-pointer to his shot diet after it was removed from him last year.

Having Isaiah as a three-point threat is an excellent way to diversify the offense because teams expect him in pick-and-roll situations or low posts. Hartenstein popping out and hitting threes can make the defense second-guess what OKC will do and make the team's offense less SGA-centric.

OKC Thunder coach Mark Daigneault told media after practice on Thursday, Oct. 3, that Isaiah Hartenstein is "confident in" his 3-point shooting.
