The Oklahoma City Thunder continued their incredible surge with a dominant 138–89 win over the Phoenix Suns. They’re now 24–1, matching the 2015–16 Golden State Warriors for the best start in NBA history through 25 games.
It’s also their 16th straight win – the longest streak in franchise history.
The Thunder controlled the game from the start. They shot an amazing 59.1% from the field and knocked down 22 three-pointers, showing off the balance that’s made them so dangerous this season.
Twelve of their thirteen players hit at least one three.
The ball zipped around the court, and the Suns simply couldn’t keep up.
Shai Gilgeous-Alexander led the charge with 28 points and eight assists. He attacked the Phoenix defense early and kept the pressure on all night long.
Chet Holmgren added 24 points and four threes, stretching the floor while also finishing plays inside.
Jalen Williams chipped in 15 points and made the most of his touches.
Phoenix really struggled without Devin Booker. They shot under 40% and kept turning the ball over.
The Thunder turned those mistakes into 34 points, blowing the game open before halftime.
Dillon Brooks scored 16 points for the Suns, but they never came close to threatening OKC’s lead.
Thunder Move Into the NBA Cup Semifinals
The win sends Oklahoma City to the NBA Cup semifinals in Las Vegas, where they’ll face either the Lakers or the Spurs.
They’ve been just as dominant in the tournament as they have in the regular season. Close games, blowouts, tough road matchups – they’ve won them all.
This incredible start has put them in conversations about the NBA’s most complete teams. Matching the Warriors’ famous 25-game record adds some serious weight to their run.
But what’s impressive? The Thunder keep treating each game the same.
Their roster is deep. Their stars are consistent. And their defense forces mistake after mistake.
Oklahoma City has transformed into one of the scariest teams in the NBA. Their confidence grows with each game, and their identity gets stronger with every win.
Not many people expected them to rise this quickly, but they’ve embraced the spotlight. This season has turned into one of the league’s best stories, and the Thunder look ready to keep their amazing run going.
