The NBA Draft is nearly upon us. And while we are virtually sure that Zion Williamson will go first overall to the new look Pelicans, beyond that is anybody’s guess. Guys like Ja Morant, RJ Barrett, Jarett Culver, and many others will vie to be the best player in the class. Let’s take a quick…… MORE
By Michael Doutey Assistant Coach Departures The Oklahoma City Thunder are off to an odd start to their offseason. OKC has reportedly lost three assistant coaches over the past few weeks. Bob Beyer, who was just here for one season, left for the Sacramento Kings to join Luke Walton’s staff. It is a bit of…… MORE
Last week, I profiled five players who could fall to the Thunder at 21st overall in the first round. Barring a draft night trade — it can’t be ruled out with Sam Presti at the helm — Oklahoma City is essentially near the back of the line when it comes to their pick of top-flight…… MORE
By Michael Doutey After the third consecutive first-round exit from the playoffs, everything about the Oklahoma City Thunder has been hyper-scrutinized.

It was not a secret that Paul George had been dealing with shoulder issues going down the stretch from this season.…… MORE
By Michael Doutey This game couldn’t have ended any other way. Damian Lillard owned this series from start to finish, and no one was going to get in his way. That was clear from Lillard’s 50 point performance last night in Game 5. The Thunder found a way to crawl back from a nine-point third…… MORE
By Michael Doutey The Portland Trail Blazers take a commanding three games to one lead in the opening round of the NBA playoffs. Portland was able to defend their home court in the first two games. The Thunder were not able to do that, falling in Game 4. Now Portland is one win away from…… MORE
By Michael Doutey The Oklahoma City Thunder are on the board taking Game 3 120-108 in a hotly contested game. The Thunder took control of the game going into halftime, taking a 10 point lead into the break. OKC extended that lead to 16 before Damian Lillard exploded for 25 points in the third quarter.…… MORE
