With the No. 48 pick in the NBA Draft, Oklahoma City took Dakari Johnson, a center from Kentucky.

Johnson spent two years at Kentucky, averaging nearly six points per game in 15 minutes per game in 78 career games. He also averaged 4.3 rebounds per game for his two-year career.

Johnson has great size at 7-feet, 255 pounds, but is very raw and probably should have returned to Kentucky for his junior season, at least. If the Thunder don't deal him as part of a trade, he'll for sure be playing across the street with the OKC Blue this season.
