The calendar has flipped to June, which means NBA teams are intensifying their predraft process and hosting players for workouts and visits. The 2024 NBA draft will take place from June 26-27.
The Oklahoma City Thunder enter this year’s class with a sole draft pick of the No. 12 selection. OKC was gifted the free lottery pick via the Houston Rockets.
The Thunder will host several meetings with draft prospects in the coming weeks. This includes players outside the lottery range as OKC will likely seek to add undrafted free agents or even buy back into the second round if it likes someone enough.
One possibility is Oakland’s Jack Gohlke. He is set to have a predraft workout with the Thunder.

The 24-year-old spent five seasons in Division II from 2018-23 before transferring to Oakland for his last college season last year. He led the Golden Grizzlies to an upset win in March Madness over Kentucky.
In 36 games last season, Gohlke averaged 13.1 points on 37.9% shooting, 4.1 rebounds and 1.1 assists. He shot 37.6% from 3 on 10.1 attempts. At 6-foot-3, 215 pounds, he has good size for a guard/forward combo.
Gohlke will likely be an undrafted free agent target. He has a shot to join the Thunder’s summer league squad and possibly be added to the G League’s OKC Blue for next season if he impresses enough.
