The Oklahoma City Thunder are hosting their second annual Thunder Legacy Weekend during their two consecutive games against the Utah Jazz from March 2 to March 5.
Several former Thunder players are expected to be in the building during both games. During Friday’s 130-103 Thunder win, several players were shown on the video board and were given an ovation by the home crowd.
“I give Sam (Presti) a lot of credit — or whoever’s idea it was — I’m assuming he had a lot to do with that. Because it’s something that we’re investing in the last two years,” Thunder head coach Mark Daigneault said. “… There’s enough of a body of work that you can start to do something like this. And it’s something it’s grown from year over year from last year to this year. Like everything else we’re doing, we’re building and I think another thing we’re building kind of in the backdrop of the team and our program is having an appreciation for the guys that have played here before and the contributions that they’ve made to the organization and the weekend is an opportunity to tangibly do that.”
Former players who are part of the organization still — either as a coach or front office member — are also set to make appearances.

Several players on this list also played for the Seattle Supersonics, considering it’s the same franchise, their time in Washington will be counted towards their tenures.
