At 1 a.m. on July 6, 2019, the news broke that the Thunder were trading Paul George. It was evident within hours this was the end of an era in Thunder history and that this blockbuster trade would also lead to the departure of our beloved Russell Westbrook. About twelve hours later, at 1:30 p.m., the Thunder put out a press release announcing that they were signing an undrafted rookie named Luguentz Dort. On this emotional day for Thunder fans, the timing was perhaps less than ideal. The announcement of Dort’s signing may have seemed a jarring answer to the news of the morning. What anyone could hardly have imagined was that the seeds had just been planted for our city’s first championship. Four days after Dort’s signing, on July 10th, the Paul George trade was officially announced by the teams involved, and a second Canadian - Shai Gilgeous-Alexander - officially joined Lu to begin a new chapter in Thunder history. Fans will have to be forgiven for failing to realize that four days in July, 2019 had just secured the core of a championship team. Lu would become the longest-tenured player on the 2025 NBA Champions and would set the tone early for the team’s rise to that moment, starting with a spirited breakout performance in the 2020 playoffs. Lu Dort was not just one of the 18 young men who brought Oklahoma City its first title in 2025, he was a key leader and contributor, and always a fan favorite for his suffocating defense on opponents. The Dorture Chamber will long live in Thunder mythology. Lu Dort will long live in Oklahoma City history. We wish Lu Dort all the best in this next chapter of his professional basketball journey, and he will always have a home in OKC.

Welcome to the 🅰️, Lu!

Thank you Lu 💙🧡

Exclusive: I caught up with OKC Thunder general manager Sam Presti to discuss the team's offseason moves, which included trading Lu Dort to Atlanta today. Here's what Presti had to say: oklahoman.com/story/sports/n…

Atlanta Hawks now have Lu Dort, Aaron Wiggins, SGA’s cousin and Cason Wallace’s brother.

Oklahoma City has now acquired seven second-round picks this offseason, shed $224 million in payroll and tax and positioned themselves comfortably under the second apron via the trades of Dort, Isaiah Joe and Aaron Wiggins. Rather than simply declining Dort's $17.7 million team option to save the money, the Thunder picked it up, acquired three future assets, created a $17M trade exception and place their 2025 championship stalwart in position for a new long-term deal in Atlanta which was not viable in OKC.

🇦🇷 ABSOLUTE MADNESS IN NYC RIGHT NOW! 🗽Times Square is completely overrun by Argentines — they shut down every street around it because the crowd is INSANE! 🔥 What’s going on?! This energy is next level!

🚨 HOLY CRAP! Residents are furious as homeless encampments are SURGING in Ugandan Mayor Mamdani's NYC, after he hindered police's ability to clear them "Streets along Manhattan's west side are looking like SKID ROW thanks to Mamdani's policy which BANS police from clearing homeless encampments until a week after 'outreach workers' step in." 🤯 "Drug dealers and thieves are operating in broad daylight. Mamdani says it's gonna be cleared but can't say when!" BRUTAL FAILURE. Communist 3rd worlders always end up being scammers and failures!

Here's Rory McIlroy going scorched earth on Bryson DeChambeau: "I think there's no doubt that he improved the line of his backswing. Again, it's like, whether it was careless or whether it was intentional, I don't think it matters. Hopefully it was careless, but I think the two-shot penalty was justified for sure. "I won't pretend to be up here and defend Bryson. I'm not particularly fond of him. I think a lot of it's performative. I think a lot of it's for attention. "To hold the tournament hostage like that, and to have all of us, players, volunteers, everyone waiting on him to depart, I didn't feel like it was a great look."

And the rest is history 🔥 Watch S3 of Quarterback on @netflix

Obviously disappointed with the ruling. I don’t agree with it, but it is what it is. This fires me up. Onto the weekend. Let’s get it.
