Home Sweet Home: Oklahoma City looks to earn its ninth win in 11 games as the team returns home to host the Utah Jazz for their third meeting this season. The Thunder holds a 19-2 record against the Jazz when playing inside Chesapeake Energy Arena and currently has a 16-game win streak against them at home. In the last three games, the Thunder has earned a +10.3 +/- rating, tied for the second-best in the NBA, shooting 51.2 percent (second), grabbing 10.0 steals per game (third) and 7.0 blocks per contest (third). Following this contest, the Thunder will remain home to face off against the Minnesota Timberwolves in the final matchup of a two-game home stand.

In 13 games from 12/16 to 1/7, nine were decided in clutch time and the Thunder won all but one of those contests, good for the most such wins in the NBA during that span.

Bench Mob: The Oklahoma City reserves have outscored or tied opposing benches in 46 of the Thunder’s 64 games, with OKC earning a 32-14 record when that happens. The Thunder bench is holding opponent reserves to the lowest scoring average (33.7) while ranking third in blocks (157).

On 12/31 vs. Dallas, with OKC down by seven with less than three minutes to play, Paul scored nine points over the next 2:16, capped by the go-ahead shot to win. On 12/16 vs. Chicago, scored 19 of his 30 points in the final frame, draining a go-ahead three with 4:10 to play and two game-winning free throws in the final 1.3 seconds.

Stealing Drexler’s Thunder: On 2/23 vs. San Antonio, Chris Paul stole his 2,208th ball to pass Clyde Drexler for seventh all-time in steals on the NBA leaderboards. Paul already ranked first among all active players. Each player that sits ahead of him on that all-time list is a member of the Hall of Fame (Stockton, Kidd, Jordan, Payton, Cheeks, Pippen). Noel Days Off: Nerlens Noel has logged 17 games so far this season in which he has blocked multiple shots and grabbed a steal. Only one other the Thunder player has had as many such games through a player’s first 55 games of the year (Ibaka).

Dennis the Menace: From 1/20-2/5, Dennis Schröder held a seven-game streak with 20+ points off the bench, the longest such streak in OKC history and the longest across all NBA reserves in the last two years. Only two other reserves in the last 10 years have had longer streaks (Lou Williams 14, Jrue Holiday 8). From 12/20 to 12/31, he produced a six-game streak which was part of an 18-game streak in which he scored 15+ points as a reserve, the longest such streak in Thunder history and the longest in the league this season.

Give Me Three: On 1/20 at Houston, Danilo Gallinari registered his 13th straight game with at least three makes from three-point range, good for the longest such streak in Oklahoma City history and Gallinari’s personal best. He is also just the third player in the last 10 years to hold such a streak (Curry, Harden). Additionally, Gallinari leads the Thunder in threes with 165, shooting them with 40.9 percent accuracy.

AmBAZEing Blocks: Darius Bazley has blocked 35 shots so far this season. This ranks as the fourth most on the team this season and the third most by a Thunder rookie over the course of an entire season (Ibaka 97, Adams 57).

You Know What They Shai: In the win over the Timberwolves on 1/13, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander posted his first career triple-double with 20 points, a career-best 20 rebounds and 10 assists, becoming the fourth player in NBA history to log a 20/20 triple-double as a sophomore (O’Neal, Barkley, Robertson). He is also just the third guard in the last 25 years to record a 20-point/20-rebound game (Simmons, Westbrook) and the fifth Thunder player to register a triple-double (Durant, George, Ibaka, Westbrook).

Don’t Get Mad, Get Steven: Steven Adams is currently averaging a career high in assists (2.4) while ranking seventh in the league in field goal percentage (59.1). He also ranks fourth in screen assists (289) and third in offensive box outs (68). In clutch time, he has the sixth-most second chance points (14) and the sixth-most rebounds (38).

Home Cooking: Since arriving in Oklahoma City, the Thunder has always taken pride in defending its home court. Dating back to the start of the 2009-10 season, OKC has gone 314-121 (.722) at home, which stands as the second-best home record in the NBA during this span. Since the 2010-11 season, Oklahoma City has earned 287 wins on home court, which stands as the second-most home wins in that timeframe (San Antonio).

Don’t Call it a Comeback: On 12/16 vs. Chicago, Oklahoma City overcame a 26-point deficit in the second quarter to earn a 109-106 win over the Bulls after outscoring them 60-38 in the second half. This marks the largest home comeback victory in Thunder history and ties the OKC record (2/9/19 at Houston). OKC then followed that performance with a 24-point comeback win over the Grizzlies the next game, making the Thunder the only team in the last 20 years to overcome back-to-back 24-point deficits. Two games later, the Thunder earned an 18-point comeback win over the Clippers, the first time the Thunder has ever had as many such wins within a week span. The win at Boston on 3/8 marked the fifth 18-point or better OKC comeback win this season.

Back-to-Backing It Up: In the first three back-to-backs of the season, Oklahoma City went 0-3 on the second night. Since the 104-90 win at Utah on 12/9, the Thunder has gone 6-1 on the second night of back-to-backs.

New Decade, Who Dis: After defeating the Mavericks on 12/31, OKC now holds a 10-2 record when playing on New Year’s Eve and is tied with Houston for the most such wins since 2008. Heading into 2020, Oklahoma City earned an 11-4 record in December (best in the Western Conference at .714) and a 5-2 road record after defeating the Raptors in Toronto, handing them just the fifth home loss of the season and extending a five-game win streak in their arena, the longest such streak among all Raptors opponents.

Shai Now, You’re a Paul-Star: Chris Paul was once again named an NBA All-Star. A former NBA All-Star game MVP, Paul made his 10th-career All-Star appearance and his first appearance since 2016. Oklahoma City has now had an All-Star in each of the last 11 seasons, good for the longest active streak in the NBA. This marks the Thunder’s 18th All-Star selection since 2010, tied with Golden State for the second-most in that time frame only to Miami’s 19. Additionally, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander was named to the Rising Stars game for the second time, making him the ninth player in Thunder history to do so. Since 2008, Oklahoma City has had a player named to the rookie/sophomore game 12 times, tied for the fourth most of all NBA teams during that span. Gilgeous-Alexander was also selected to replace Derrick Rose in the Taco Bells Skills Challenge as a part of All-Star Saturday Night, just the third Thunder player to do so (Jackson, Westbrook).

The Young & The Restless: In the win at Minnesota on 1/25, four Thunder players age 21 and younger scored in double figures (Bazley, Diallo, Dort, Gilgeous-Alexander). The last time that happened for Oklahoma City was in April 2010 and the only other group to accomplish the feat was Durant, Harden, Ibaka and Westbrook. Shai It Again: From 12/22-12/31, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander logged five straight games with 15+ points and multiple steals. The only other Thunder players to log such a streak are Kevin Durant, Paul George and Russell Westbrook. Westbrook holds the longest OKC streak at seven games from 2010. The only other players in the league to produce such a streak this season are James Harden (seven) and Westbrook (six). Moose on the Loose: In four games from 1/22-27, Mike Muscala shot 66.7 percent from beyond the arc, netting 12-of-18 shots. From 1/13-25, he drained 20 three-pointers (48.8 percent), including five games with 3+ threes. Monthly Winner: Head Coach Billy Donovan was named Western Conference Coach of the Month for the month of December, his first such honor. Donovan guided Oklahoma City to a conference-leading 11-4 record, closing out the month winning seven of eight contests. During the month, OKC compiled one four-game win streak and a pair of three game win-streaks. Oklahoma City finished the month with a 5-2 record on the road, capped by a 98-97 victory at the reigning NBA Champion Toronto Raptors, giving the Raptors just their fifth defeat at home this season. The Thunder also went 9-2 in games decided in clutch time, the second-most such wins on the month. Win the Week: Dennis Schröder was named NBA Player of the Week for Week 9 after leading the Thunder to a perfect 4-0 week behind averages of 25.3 points, 5.3 rebounds and 6.0 assists, shooting 50.7 percent from the field and 92.6 percent from the free throw line. He is now just the fourth player in the last 20 years to earn POW honors as a reserve (Lou Williams 2018, Markieff Morris 2013, J.R. Smith 2013). Ten-Fold: In 10 games from 12/27-1/4, the Thunder went 9-1, tied for the best in the NBA (Utah). This marks the third streak for OKC since 2017-18 of 10+ games with only one loss. OKC had a five-game win streak, good for both the team’s longest of the season and was at the time tied for the longest active streak in the NBA. Need I Shai More: Through the first 10 games this season, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander averaged 21.0 points, the second-highest scoring average through the first 10 games of any Thunder sophomore behind Kevin Durant’s 21.9 in 2008 and ahead of Russell Westbrook’s 15.6 in 2009. Additionally, halfway through the season, Gilgeous-Alexander’s 20.0 points per game average ranks second only to Durant’s 24.1 and ahead of Westbrook’s 16.1. Gilgeous-Alexander is just the fourth player in Thunder history to average 20 points or more through the first half of the season (Durant, George, Westbrook). Paul in a Day’s Work: A nine-time All-Star and two-time gold medalist, Chris Paul is ranked seventh in NBA history in assists (9,607) and seventh in steals (2,220) and is first among active players in both. He joins Jason Kidd and John Stockton as the only players with 9,000+ assists and 2,000+ steals. Additionally, in the win over the Bulls on 12/16, Paul scored his 18,000th career point, making him one of three players in NBA history with 18,000+ points and 9,000+ rebounds, joining John Stockton and Isiah Thomas. Draft Horse: After Summer 2019, the Thunder now holds eight first-round draft picks over the next seven years in addition to the team’s own picks. Also, OKC can swap the least favorable of its own 2021 1st and Miami’s 2021 1st with Houston’s 2021st (protected 1-4), its own 2023 1st with LA Clippers’ 2023 1st (unprotected), its own 2025 1st with LA Clippers’ 2025 1st (unprotected), and its own 2025 1st with Houston’s 2025 1st (protected 1-10). A breakdown of the Thunder’s additional first-round picks can be found below.

Billy the Kid: With Oklahoma City’s 120-92 victory over Golden State, Billy Donovan earned his 200th win as an NBA head coach with a 60.4 percent win percentage. The only other active head coaches to have at least 200 wins and a 60 percent win percentage or better with their respective teams are Steve Kerr (322 wins, 78.5 percent), Gregg Popovich (1,245 wins, 68.4 percent) and Doc Rivers (307 wins, 62.4 percent). On the Record: In the 139-127 overtime victory over the Timberwolves on 12/6, the Thunder had five players with at least 20 points (Paul 30, Gilgeous-Alexander 29, Schröder 25, Adams 22, Gallinari 21). This marks the first time in Oklahoma City history and the first time in the league since March 2004 that a team has had as many players with 20-plus points each (Atlanta – Stephen Jackson 42, Bob Sura 28, Jason Terry 23, Jason Collier 22, Chris Crawford 20). Ciao Ciao: From 10/23-11/5, Danilo Gallinari went a perfect 24-for-24 from the free throw line before his first miss of the season, which was good for longest such streak in the league. He currently ranks second on the team in free throw percentage (.886).

Keeping it 100: In the Thunder’s win over New Orleans on Nov. 29, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander played his 100th-career game. He is one of 14 players with 100+ steals, 50+ blocks and 75+ three-pointers in their first 100 games since threes became an official stat in 1982.

Mind the Gap: On 10/28 at Houston, the Thunder bench outscored the Rockets reserves 52-14. This 38-point margin is the largest for Oklahoma City since 4/12/17 vs. Denver and ranks as the fourth largest such margin in Thunder history. The night before on 10/27 vs. Golden State, the Thunder downed the Warriors 120-92, tying OKC’s largest margin of victory over Golden State. The 33-point halftime edge was the Warriors’ worst deficit at the break since 1997.

Hamidoing it Right: After finishing his rookie campaign with 21 steals, Hamidou Diallo snagged 15 through the first 10 games of the 2019-20 season. This makes him the first Thunder sophomore to grab as many in the first 10 games of the season. Second is Jeff Green in 2008 (14).

You can Shai that Again: In his Thunder debut at Utah on 10/23, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander posted a team-leading and then-career-best 26 points, the second-most ever scored in a Thunder debut (Paul George, 28). He is also just the third Thunder player to lead the team in scoring in his team debut (Paul George, Russell Westbrook). He then followed that performance by setting yet another career mark with 28 points against the Wizards on Oct. 25.

Eight Ball: In the 11/9 victory over the Warriors, Danilo Gallinari led the team with 21 points on 6-of-11 shooting from the field and 4-of-6 shooting from beyond the arc. In the process, he scored his 8,888th career point. Born on 8/8/88, Gallinari has worn the number eight since he entered the league in 2008.

International Flair: The 2019-20 Thunder squad features six international players in Steven Adams (New Zealand), Danilo Gallinari (Italy), Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (Canada), Abdel Nader (Egypt), Dennis Schröder (Germany) and two-way player Luguentz Dort (Canada). Including two-way players, Oklahoma City is tied for the third-most international players on opening night rosters among all NBA teams as only Philadelphia (eight) and Dallas (seven) have more. This year, NBA rosters feature 108 international players from 38 countries and territories and a record-setting 11 international two-way players from eight countries, marking the sixth-consecutive season that opening-night rosters feature at least 100 international players.

New Kids on the Block: Over the summer, Oklahoma City added some new faces to the roster, including Darius Bazley, Danilo Gallinari, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and Chris Paul. At Las Vegas Summer League 2019, Bazley had the best three-point shooting percentage on the team (42.9 percent) and swatted the second-most blocks of all Thunder players (five). Last year, in his 11th NBA season, Gallinari averaged career bests in points (19.8), rebounds (6.1) and field goal percentage (46.3 percent) while ranking fourth in the NBA in free throw percentage (90.4 percent) and fifth in the league in three-point percentage (43.3 percent). During the 2018-19 season, Gilgeous-Alexander led all rookies on +.500 teams in scoring and minutes per game and during March led the NBA in three-point shooting (59.4). A nine-time All-Star, Paul has been named to the All-NBA team on eight occasions, led the league in steals six times and assists four times. He has also been named to nine NBA All-Defensive Teams. Paul is the only player in NBA history to average at least 18.0 points, 9.0 assists, 4.0 rebounds and 2.00 steals.

Sustaining Success: In the past decade, OKC has compiled the second-best record in the NBA (behind San Antonio). After the 2008-09 season in which Oklahoma City won 20 games after a 3-29 start, the Thunder found ways to improve the club each year and with a 60-22 record during the 2012-13 season, Oklahoma City became just the second team in NBA history (Boston, 1955-1960) to increase its winning percentage for five consecutive seasons (while maintaining a winning percentage of .700 or better in two of those seasons). Oklahoma City has now finished with a winning percentage of .610 (equivalent to 50 wins) six times dating back to the 2009-10 season. Only San Antonio (eight seasons with .610 or better winning percentage) has reached that benchmark more during this period. After finishing the 2018-19 season with a record of 49-33, OKC is now one of three teams (Houston and San Antonio) to maintain a .500 or better record in each of the last 10 seasons. OKC is Fan Friendly: In each of the past two years, the Thunder has been ranked number one in the NBA when it comes to the fan and game experience. The team's TV broadcasts on FOX Sports Oklahoma finished last season third in local TV ratings across the league, and the Thunder ranks fifth in the NBA in mobile app downloads and sixth in total social media engagements. On 2/7/19 vs. Memphis last season, Oklahoma City celebrated the team’s 500th game inside Chesapeake Energy Arena.

Blue Review: The Thunder’s G League affiliate, the Oklahoma City Blue currently ranks third in the NBAGL in blocks (5.95), second in assists (26.7) and fifth in field goal percentage (47.8). Abdul Gaddy leads the league in assists with his 8.9 per game and ranks fifth by shooting 43.8 percent from long range while Kadeem Jack ranks ninth in the league by shooting 60.6 percent from the field.
