Thunder rookie Brooks Barnhizer registers triple-double in G League

Oklahoma City Thunder rookie Brooks Barnhizer recorded a triple-double in the G League on Tuesday, helping the OKC Blue to a win over the Memphis Hustle.

Barnhizer produced 10 points, 11 rebounds, 10 assists and one blocked shot in the 114-84 victory at the Paycom Center. He went 4-of-5 from the field in 30 minutes and was a plus-21 as the Blue improved to 4-4 to begin the season.

The 44th pick in the 2025 NBA draft is the first player to register a triple-double in the G League this season. He found success by penetrating the paint and either finishing at the rim or finding teammates for lobs or other easy looks.

Barnhizer, signed to a two-way contract, is averaging 15.4 points, 8.4 rebounds, 6.8 assists and 1.4 steals on 41.7% shooting from 3-point range in five games with the Blue. He has scored in double figures four times, including a 26-point, 10-assist effort on Nov. 21.

The 23-year-old has made 15 appearances with the Thunder, averaging 1.4 points and 2.1 rebounds while shooting 52.9% from the field. He has logged at least 10 minutes in a game four times, most recently on Nov. 15 in a win over the Charlotte Hornets.

Barnhizer was a player the Thunder heavily scouted throughout last season at Northwestern. The organization is pleased with his progress this season and is eager to watch his continued development.
