What’s up OKC Thunder fans!

On the court, the Thunder haven’t clinched the wins this week, as they’ve now dropped three straight games. However, this doesn’t mean we’ve stopped supporting them.

They’ve missed the talents of Shai Gilgeous Alexander, Darius Bazley, and Lu Dort and, in this week’s edition of the “top fan tweets,” we look at how these guys have still played a part while not being on the court as well as some bonus tweets to honor the fourth anniversary of Russell Westbrook’s triple-double record. 

Be sure to follow our Twitter @thunderousint to keep up with all things OKC Thunder. We’re always posting questions and enjoy interacting with fans.

Top 3 OKC Thunder fan tweets:

First up, we have this tweet showing Bazley, SGA, Lu, and Al Horford cheering on their teammates from courtside this week.

The photo is the best depiction of how close-knit this squad is and the fact that no matter if you’re playing or not, it’s about the team rather than the individual.

I wanted to share this tweet because, in my humble opinion, it seems like a true representation of Sam Presti.

The OKC Thunder currently have six players that went undrafted — Dort, Jaylen Hoard, Kenrich Williams, Josh Hall, Moses Brown, and Justin Robinson. It’s awesome to see them getting the chance to shine and, as we’ve seen from Lu early in his career, it’s worth it.

Despite Russell Westbrook not being on the Thunder, we’ll always celebrate his miraculous achievements.

Four years ago this week, on April 9, 2017, Westbrook broke Oscar Robertson’s record for the most triple-doubles in NBA history. It was a moment in which you remember exactly where you were and what you were doing.

Fans looked back on that indelible performance in his MVP season. Above are just a few tweets.

That’s all for this week Thunder fans. Hope you enjoyed looking back at an unforgettable day that we’ll be talking about for a very long time.

Have an amazing week! #ThunderUp.
