Thunder plan to keep Donovan despite playoff struggles. MORE:
OKLAHOMA CITY — The Oklahoma City Thunder plan to keep coach Billy Donovan for a fifth year.
"Would we prefer if he handled a few things differently? Sure," Presti said."We've talked about that. I also think it would probably be worthy and noteworthy to establish the fact that he made some adjustments to that particular approach, and I think that's a sign of tremendous leadership and a sign that he is understanding that when he speaks, he is the reflection of so many different people.
Presti said he plans to discuss with Donovan why the team went through a 6-13 stretch from late February to the end of March after a promising first two-thirds of the season. Presti called the last part of the season"disappointing" after speculation the Thunder might challenge Golden State at the top of the Western Conference.
