The feel-good story continues for Bishop McGuinness basketball manager Tyler Frederickson, ‘T-Fred.’

Following last week’s story, the Oklahoma City Thunder got in touch with McGuinness about general manager Sam Presti wanting to meet with TFred.

T-Fred braved the elements and went to the Thunder’s win against the Denver Nuggets on Friday and got to have his meeting with Presti.

Said T-Fred:

He was really nice to me, and I wasn’t nervous at all. He thanked me for being a Thunder supporter.”

It’s been a whirlwind for T-Fred lately, who said he could barely make it out of church with so many people wanting to talk to him. He also sent Kentucky freshman Daniel Orton a signed article.

T-Fred also got floor seats Friday night. And sometimes the most obvious things are funny: “Kevin Durant is really tall.”
