Sebastian Telfair was waived by OKC tonight:

Thunder waive Sebastian Telfair

Wonder if he'll get another NBA job

[roffie]

lol couldn't even make the cut on such a depleted team. truly a terrible basketball player

[JimmyMcAdocious]

This has got to be it for him, right?

Still amazed how he amassed a 9 year NBA career. He's not even 30, yet, either.

Why? They need bodies, you can be assured he'll be in Purple and Gold in a week

He's awful.

[HylianNightmare]

wow. that was his chance

[KyrieTheFuture]

He's awful.

Not arguing that, but he's better than nothing

[wally_world]

I thought he was doing okay. I think another team signs him for this season.

[Springsteen]

I'll never forget that Clippers game at the beginning of the season where he literally had a couple of chances to seal the game and choked. Legit scrub.

[All Net]

Russ is back soon then..

[Fudge]

Russ is back on Friday, so he would be no use on the roster. He played decent enough to where he COULD get picked up by a team in desperate need of a backup. We also kept Ish Smith instead him, so that doesn't really bode well for his stock.

[KG215]

Is Russ for sure back by Friday? I heard the reason they released Telfair is because Ish Smith's hardship was getting ready to expire so they were going to have to release a player, anyway. Not sure why they chose Ish over Telfair since they're going to have to pay Telfair anyway, but that's why I thought they were releasing Telfair. Not necessarily because Westbrook will for sure be back by Friday.

[VIP2000]

Well, there goes his chance of finally appearing in a playoff game...

[bdreason]

He's just too small. Gets abused on defense, can't create his own shot, and doesn't have great court vision. If you're going to be a midget in this league, you better have vision and be an elite shooter.
