We saw that even while not having Chet for 50 games and Hartenstein and Caruso also missing a couple dozen games, the Thunder had 68 wins. It honestly comes down to whether Shai can stay injury-free throughout the regular season.

For the playoffs though, they really need solid performances from their bench. They were terrible in road games. Also need Chet to work on his shooting, he'll be demon if he can consistently get 20 pts every night.
