Carmelo Anthony’s departure from the Oklahoma City Thunder has never felt more inevitable.

Here’s the lowdown, according to ESPN.com’s [...]

Already have your Paul George Los Angeles Lakers jersey on custom order? Well, not so fast. It’s apparently looking more and more like he could stick with the Oklahoma City Thunder. From The New York Times‘ Marc Stein: There is a growing belief around the league that Oklahoma City has a far better chance to retain [...]

Paul George will miss the next six to eight weeks while recovering from a left knee scope. Fortunately for the Oklahoma City Thunder, their season is already over, so this doesn’t impact their immediate plans.

That is not exactly what anybody envisioned happening and makes Paull George’s free agency decision that much more interesting [...]

Donovan Mitchell is so confident the Utah Jazz will win Game 6 of their first-round series with the Thunder that he’s already bidding farewell to Oklahoma City’s fans. For a while on Wednesday night, it looked as if the Jazz would be finishing off the Thunder with a gentleman’s sweep. They jumped out to a [...]

Currently in the No. 7 seed in the western conference, the Oklahoma City Thunder have not quite had the level of success many expected they would after acquiring Paul George and Carmelo Anthony this summer. While Melo hasn’t exactly fit in seamlessly alongside Russell Westbrook in OKC, Paul George has been pretty effective and has [...]
