Yes, I had to cancel my flight to Vegas. But you know what? I saw it coming. San Antonio is good…and they remind me of the 2023-24 Thunder. Nevertheless, OKC can get back right after some well-needed rest, on Thursday, against the Clippers in OKC. Check out my latest

Shai with a very transparent answer regarding OKC breaking the Golden State Warriors’ 73-win record. “Absolutely [trying to break the record], winning matters.”

Pretty soon we may be saying this is the best team to play basketball. What’s new? OKC won, again. They’re 24-1. Franchise-long win streak. Handed the Suns a record-breaking loss. And are SMACKING teams left and right. Check out my latest AfterWords and show some love. ✊🏾

I asked coach Daigneault, through this winning streak, what’s one important thread that’s carried the team through this stretch: “Staying present in the moment,” was what he talked about.

Talked to Jalen Williams about his thoughts after his college, Santa Clara, retired his jersey. Takeaways from that evening and what he wants to be remembered for:

I could talk about OKC being one win away from tying the Thunder record for consecutive wins (15). I could talk about Shai dropping 33 on 12 shots in just 29 minutes. I could talk about Dub looking balanced and locked in after coming back from injury. Instead, I talked about

The Thunder beat Dallas 132-111 to move to 22-1, extending their win streak to 14. My takeaways: ■ Next Man Up showed up again. This had “trap game” energy, but OKC handled business. ■ The first 5 minutes of the second half decided everything. That 23–7 burst put it away.

When LAC sent Chris Paul home, it was shocking. Has a team ever shunned its own best player ever? Considering it's the Clippers, it kinda makes sense. My piece on their storied history of being the worst, on and off the court. @TheSuaveReport

In professional sports, the gut instinct of the neutral fan is to root for the little brother. The Mets, Angels, UCLA, Jets and other teams I’m forgetting are all far less hated than the team…

OKC walked into the Bay with the best record in basketball and league-leading winning streak. Golden State threw punches out of halftime, adjusted, and the momentum flipped. But once the fourth hit? Dub and Chet settled in, reasserted their aggressiveness, and OKC reminded

Sorry to put a damper on Oklahoman’s great afternoon/evening, but the Thunder just announced that Isaiah Hartenstein has sustained a right soleus strain and will be re-evaluated in 10-14 days.

Jalen Williams made a statement tonight by not trying to make a statement in his return. ■ Dub just wanted to fit into what OKC’s doing during this 18-1 stretch. ■ Shai’s slow first quarter didn’t matter. He always gets to his spots. ■ OKC is 19-1, finishes 4-0 in Group

The historic season continues, but Minnesota made OKC earn everything tonight. ⚡️ ▫️ SGA was sick? Couldn’t tell. He TOOK OVER. ▫️ But he shouldn’t have had to. Nights like this show how much OKC needs J Dub’s presence. Broke it all down in the latest AfterWords. Tap in. 🫶🏾

Asked Mark Daigneault about Shai’s fight tonight, despite being sick. “He gave us a huge offensive lift tonight”

Shai debuts his WINTER RED colorway of the SHAI 001s. ❄️🔴 The red color draws inspiration from the winterberry plant, one of the few plants that keeps its color through the cold Hamilton, Ontario winters.

“He’s one of the guys.” Thunder rookie Thomas Sorber is out this entire season with a torn ACL, but he has built chemistry with his teammates despite not touching the floor. On Halloween costumes, TikTok dances and one of OKC’s biggest characters: https://t.co/yIrcltlVeL

Despite being out for the entire season with a torn ACL, rookie center Thomas Sorber has meshed well with his OKC Thunder teammates.

OKC got to 17-1 and made it look EASY tonight. ▫️ Shai wanted to kick his feet up & relax, so he went OFF early. ▫️ How OKC 17-1 without their second-best player? Ajay Mitchell is the culprit. ▫️ How good will this team look with Dub back!? 😮💨🔥
