Tomorrow is the deadline for NBA teams to extend players who are eligible for rookie extensions,and it looks like the Thunder want to lock down both Adams and Oladipo before they can hit the market as a restricted free agents in the summer of 2017. 

Adams is averaging 12.5 points and 7.5 rebounds through the first two games of the season while Oladipo is averaging 15.5 points of his own. Both guys could demand a lot of money if given the opportunity to hit the open market, so it's vital that the Thunder lock down its young assets before tomorrow's 11 p.m. deadline.
