Why the Thunder’s young stars embrace sacrifice: ‘We all want to win’
OKLAHOMA CITY — The towels are folded in exact alignment. The basketballs sitting on the racks embedded into the walls are flawlessly placed, with “Wilson” and the commissioner’s signature facing the right direction.That someone in the Oklahoma City Thunder’s practice facility cares enough about even the most mundane details shows this is a place that values organization and order. It helps explain 64 wins, the 2025 NBA championship and the eight-game winning streak that preceded a double-overtime loss in an epic start to the Western Conference finals.But a more critical eye knows there are pitfalls everywhere.Advertisementالمصدر: The Athletic | Source: The Athletic
