Oklahoma City Thunder center Steven Adams hit a one-handed 3 from beyond half court on Thursday against the New Orleans Pelicans to end the first half.

Adams made it look way too easy:

Adams entered Thursday averaging 10.7 points, 9.3 rebounds and 2.6 assists for the Thunder. OKC wound up keeping Adams after having trade discussions with the Atlanta Hawks.

The Thunder have been one of the biggest surprises this season. After losing stars Russell Westbrook and Paul George in the same summer, many thought OKC would be rebuilding in 2019-20.

However, Chris Paul and Shai Gilgeous-Alexander have each been playing like All-Stars, even though Paul is headed to Chicago and Gilgeous-Alexander isn't.

Adams has been his usual effective self on the boards and on defense and other newcomer Danilo Gallinari has been scoring and shooting the ball well from the 3 spot.
