Following the surprise season they just endured, the OKC Thunder are likely looking to make some strong and significant shakeups to their team this summer to better their odds of claiming their first-ever Larry O'Brien Trophy.
From their enviable spending power that could be utilized in free agency to the copious amounts of draft capital they possess that could, in theory, finally be cashed in to execute some sort of blockbuster trade, many changes could come underway for coach Mark Daigneault's rotation.
Of course, player additions won't be the only difference between this year's squad and next, for, to bring on any new talents, the Thunder must part ways with already existing ones to make room.
Ranking Thunder 'who might be gone' from least to most likely to depart
Recently, ESPN's NBA Front Office Insider Bobby Marks crafted a piece breaking down the offseason situations and agendas for all 30 teams across the league, including players on each club "who might be gone" come the start of next season.
For the Oklahoma City Thunder, he name-dropped a few talents, in particular, who he believes will ultimately end up departing from Loud City this summer. However, with the offseason having only just begun following Monday's conclusion to the NBA Finals, it's hard to be certain how a team's or player's decision-making winds up playing out.
With this in mind, while focusing on the players Marks singled out in his piece, we at TI have ranked each of the names that are believed to be on their way out based on their likelihood of departure.
