"Led by reigning MVP Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, the Oklahoma City Thunder had a historically great 2024-25 season that culminated in the franchise's first-ever title. It was a largely inactive summer. The Thunder are so absurdly deep, so not much work was quite necessary. Perhaps I would've liked a move to add another shooter, but they decided to stay pat. The extent of its summer was re-signing Gilgeous-Alexander, Chet Holmgren and Jalen Williams to rookie max extensions."
"Oklahoma City did draft Thomas Sorber - a top-8 player on my board - No. 15 overall. However, the 6-foot-10 big will miss the entirety of his rookie summer after tearing his ACL in an offseason workout. This will be the second straight summer they will be without their first-round pick due to an ACL tear. I can't really give the Thunder any grade because of how silent it was, but I will give them credit for drafting Sorber."
Led by reigning MVP Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, the Oklahoma City Thunder completed a historically great 2024-25 season that culminated in the franchise's first-ever title. The team opted for a quiet 2025 offseason, re-signing Gilgeous-Alexander, Chet Holmgren and Jalen Williams to rookie max extensions while making no major additions. Oklahoma City selected Thomas Sorber at No. 15 overall and Brooks Barnhizer at No. 44. Sorber, a 6-foot-10 big regarded highly on many boards, tore his ACL in an offseason workout and will miss his rookie summer, marking the second straight first-round pick sidelined by an ACL injury. The roster remains deep.
