Happy Halloween
Halloween is huge in the NBA. Typically there are epic costume parties with one team trying to best the other, but the parties were absent this year. Thunder players traditionally threw forward Nick Collison a Halloween/Birthday party. But, due to Mr. Thunder retiring this past summer there was no celebration this October. However, that did not prevent players across the league from displaying their costumes while entering the arena on game day.
