No, this isn’t a misprint.

Enes Kanter would play 180 Games for the Oklahoma City Thunder, and he was never close to being an All-Star but the Turkish Center has put out the most efficient production of his career while playing in OKC.  Kanter’s PERin OKC was 24.1 with a True Shooting Percentage of .612. Also a solid rebounder, Kanter would lead the NBA in 2015/16 in Offensive Rebound Percentage.  Kanter was not a starter but the home he found in Oklahoma fits his play perfectly.
A member of the Seattle SuperSonics for three and a half seasons, Sedale Threatt was used mostly off of the bench, though he would take over the starting role in his last season in the Emerald City.  Threatt was an underrated player and he finished with a PER of 16.6 as a Sonic, the highest he would do with any team.  He would later be traded to the Lakers where he would be their starter and adopt the nickname of “The Thief” for his ability to Steal.

Antonio Daniels played for Seattle for two of his thirteen seasons in the NBA, where he was used as a backup Point Guard.  It was actually in Seattle where he had has largest PPG (9.7) and had his only 10 Points per Game Season.  It is certainly worth noting that his two best PER seasons were with the Sonics, posting numbers of 19.7 ad 18.0 respectively.
