SGA’s dad says he’ll never leave OKC for Toronto because family would always be asking him for tickets, and he doesn’t see him leaving for a big market with nightlife distractions.
“Shai is perfect where he is in OKC, and I don’t think he will ever leave.”

Matt Damon says Ben Affleck was the first person to find out he had been cast as Odysseus in 'The Odyssey'
"I immediately called my wife ... who was [busy]. Then I called Ben and he freaked out"
"I was on the phone with him for about half an hour ... they were at the office in LA. I hung up with him and my wife texted me: 'Why didn't you tell me first?' Cause Ben had run into her office to tell her" 😂

Oklahoma City still holds a special place for Chris Paul ❤️
“It was so dope to get a chance to go back after that, ’cause obviously I got drafted to the New Orleans Hornets when [Hurricane] Katrina happened, and a lot of people don’t realize I won Rookie of the Year in Oklahoma. I got my Rookie of the Year trophy in Oklahoma City, and then the next year I played in Oklahoma again. So when I went back in 2019–20 after being in the league for, what, 13 years at that point, 14 years, it was just an appreciation that I have for the city, I think that they have for me, and to get a chance to be a part of that was real cool.”

“Oklahoma City has given me so much, and being part of this investment is a chance to give something back beyond what I do on the court. The Thunder organization, the fans and the entire community here show up for each other in a way that is rare in pro sports. Helping bring a soccer club and stadium district to life is exactly the kind of long-term impact I want to have in Oklahoma City.”

How did Draymond become the voice of reason on all things Thunder lmao? A lot of these “reporters” could also take a note from his book on doing a little research before commenting. Sounds like he understands the cap situation well. Great segment from him.
