The superstar who stayed in OKC for 11 years has spent time on the Houston Rockets, Washington Wizards, Los Angeles Lakers, LA Clippers and Denver Nuggets since leaving the Thunder. During his one season in Denver, Westbrook matched up against Oklahoma City in the midst of its title run, causing a range of emotions for the Thunder crowd.

The Oklahoma City Thunder have a true superstar with Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and his playmaking has become a huge evolution to his game recently.

New signage installed at the OKC airport and along state highways make sure visitors know they've entered the "Home of the 2025 NBA Champions."

Though a small sample size of three games thus far into the season, the Thunder is looking like last year's championship form on defense.

The championship rings also depict the Gates of Time and Reflecting Pool at the Oklahoma City National Memorial & Museum, set with sapphires.

One thing that OKC Thunder players were excited about before the start of the 2025-26 season: receiving their championship rings.

During his time suiting up for the Thunder, Hopson wore only jersey No. 55 and put up 4.0 points, 1.0 rebounds, and as many assists per game.
