The Thunder recalled Mann from the G League's Oklahoma City Blue on Tuesday, Andrew Schlecht of The Athletic reports.
Mann and Aleksej Pokusevski were both sent to the G League earlier in the day and presumably practiced before returning to the NBA club. Mann played a season-high 24 minutes during the Thunder's blowout win over Portland on Sunday, totaling seven points, five rebounds and two assists, but he hasn't been part of coach Mark Daigneault's regular rotation this season.

Thunder's Tre Mann: Leads second unit in scoring
Rotowire
Mann amassed 12 points (5-7 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 1-1 FT), four rebounds and one assist across eight minutes during Sunday's 128-95 loss to Denver.
Mann played only eight minutes but led all Thunder bench players in scoring during a blowout loss, marking his first double-digit scoring effort of the season. Mann has garnered a limited role off the bench so far this season, so he shouldn't be on fantasy radars despite his solid effort versus Denver.

Thunder's Tre Mann: Team option exercised
Rotowire
Oklahoma City exercised Mann's third-year contract option for the 2024-25 season Saturday, Joe Mussatto of The Oklahoman reports.
Mann turned in a disappointing 2022-23 campaign after posting a strong rookie year, but the Thunder have still elected to exercise his third-year team option. He averaged 7.7 points, 2.3 rebounds and 1.8 assists in 17.7 minutes per contest (67 games). His salary will be set at $4.9 million for the 2024-25 season.

Thunder's Tre Mann: Off injury report
Rotowire
Mann (calf) is cleared for Sunday's preseason contest against Charlotte.

Mann is out for Thursday's preseason game against the Pistons due to a calf contusion, Joe Mussatto of The Oklahoman reports.

Thunder's Tre Mann: Healthy for camp
Rotowire
Mann (finger) is healthy for training camp, Brandon Rahbar of the Daily Thunder reports.
Thunder general manager Sam Presti implied that Mann has been living in the gym during the offseason, so it's clear that the third-year guard is desperate to bounce back after struggling in 2022-23. But with the Thunder noticeably deeper this season, there's no guarantee that Mann will break the rotation.

Rotowire
Mann suffered a small avulsion fracture in his right middle finger and is expected to return to basketball activities in two weeks, Joe Mussatto of The Oklahoman reports.
Mann's Summer League is over after impressing in his last two outings. The 22-year-old guard made 67 appearances for the Thunder last season and should be healthy for training camp.

Thunder's Tre Mann: Explodes for 28 points
Rotowire
Mann tallied 28 points (10-14 FG, 2-6 3PT, 6-8 FT), four rebounds, two assists and a steal over 31 minutes of Wednesday's 94-86 loss to Memphis during Summer League.
Mann was red-hot Wednesday, going a perfect 8-for-8 from inside the arc on his way to a game-high 28 points. The third-year guard has now logged back-to-back 20-point performances in Summer League and should remain OKC's top option for the remainder of Summer League, especially with Jalen Williams (undisclosed) on the sidelines.

Thunder's Tre Mann: Will come off bench Wednesday
Rotowire
Mann will return to the second unit for Wednesday's game against the Pelicans, Joe Mussatto of The Oklahoman reports.
The Thunder rested all of their main guys for the regular-season finale, but everyone is back for Wednesday's Play-In Tournament, so Mann will head back to the bench. It's possible that Mann won't be in the rotation Wednesday.

Thunder's Tre Mann: Dynamic triple-double in win
Rotowire
Mann contributed 24 points (9-16 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 5-5 FT), 12 rebounds, 12 assists and two steals across 47 minutes during Sunday's 115-100 win over the Grizzlies.
The Thunder came into Sunday's game locked in as the 10th seed, so Mann got an opportunity to shine with the starting lineup taking a seat. Unlike the motley crew around him in Sunday's win, Mann has plenty of experience in the limelight, coming in handy when Shai Gilgeous-Alexander or Josh Giddey registered an absence this season. The 22-year-old will head back to the bench for the playoffs but should still average 15-20 minutes per game.

Thunder's Tre Mann: Starting regular-season finale
Rotowire
Mann is starting Sunday's game against the Grizzlies, Joe Mussatto of The Oklahoman reports.
Mann has been on the fringes of Oklahoma City's rotation in recent weeks, but he'll draw his first start since late October on Sunday since the Thunder are resting several players to close out the regular season. Over four starts earlier this year, he averaged 13.3 points, 3.3 rebounds and 3.3 assists in 28.0 minutes per game.

Thunder's Tre Mann: Two steals in loss
Rotowire
Mann racked up seven points (3-7 FG, 1-1 3Pt), two rebounds, two assists and two steals across 18 minutes during Tuesday's 137-134 loss to the Hornets.
Mann saw 18 minutes off the bench with Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (ankle) sidelined and posted at least five points, two rebounds and two assists for a second straight game. Mann also notched his first multi-steal game since Jan. 3, when he recorded a season-high three swipes in a win over Boston.

Thunder's Tre Mann: Back in rotation Thursday
Rotowire
Mann contributed 12 points (5-9 FG, 2-3 3Pt), two rebounds and one assist in 21 minutes during Thursday's 128-111 loss to Toronto.
Mann was back in the rotation Thursday, playing 21 minutes off the bench after missing the previous three games. The Thunder are not afraid to shuffle their rotation based on the matchup, so while this was a decent performance, there is no guarantee that Mann will remain active for the next game.

Thunder's Tre Mann: Sees extended minutes in blowout
Rotowire
Mann closed with 14 points (4-9 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 4-5 FT), four rebounds, four assists, one block and one steal across 28 minutes during Wednesday's 132-101 loss to the Suns.
Mann scored his most points since Feb. 6 and played his most minutes since Jan. 3 in Wednesday's loss. However, the second-year guard has tallied double-digit points in just three of his last 10 appearances and doesn't have a big enough role to offer much fantasy value outside of a reserve role in deep leagues. He's likely to fall out of the rotation as soon as the Thunder have both of Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (abdomen) and Jalen Williams (wrist) available, perhaps as soon as Saturday's game at New Orleans.

Thunder's Tre Mann: Solid output in limited minutes
Rotowire
Mann ended Friday's 124-115 loss to the Suns with 11 points (4-7 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 1-1 FT), five rebounds and three assists in 16 minutes.
With Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (ankle) out, Mann still failed to reach the 20-minute threshold for the third game in a row, but that didn't matter much, as he posted his best scoring output since recording 18 points against the Warriors on Feb. 6. Mann holds a minimal -- and inconsistent -- role off the bench, however, so he doesn't carry a lot of fantasy upside even on nights when the Thunder are without key backcourt members.

Rotowire
The Thunder assigned Mann to the G League's Oklahoma City Blue on Tuesday, Andrew Schlecht of The Athletic reports.
Mann didn't play in Monday's loss to the Pelicans, snapping a 23-game streak with an appearance. He's fallen out of the rotation of late and will get some extended work in at the G League level to stay sharp heading into the All-Star break.

Thunder's Tre Mann: Returns to NBA squad
Rotowire
The Thunder recalled Mann from the G League's Oklahoma City Blue and upgraded him to available for Monday's game against the Pelicans.
Mann looks like he'll get the chance to pull double duty Monday, as he previously appeared in the Blue's 133-113 loss to the Memphis Hustle earlier in the day. He played 33 minutes for the Blue, logging a team-high 24 points (10-20 FG, 4-8 3Pt) to go with seven rebounds, six assists and two steals. Mann should be able to handle a small role off the bench for the Thunder behind starting guards Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and Josh Giddey.

Thunder's Tre Mann: Recalled from G League
Rotowire
Mann was recalled from the G League's Oklahoma City Blue on Monday, Andrew Schlecht of The Athletic reports.
Mann was sent to the G League on Monday but wasn't forced to miss any of the Thunder's games. He'll presumably be available for Monday's game against the Pelicans, and he's averaged 11.2 points in 18.0 minutes per game over five appearances in February.
