The Oklahoma City Thunder tied the 2015-16 Golden State Warriors for the best 25-game start in NBA history, opening the 2025-26 season 24-1.

The OKC Thunder is off to a historic start to this season. And while its sights are set on another title, it makes sure to appreciate the present.

The Thunder are on pace to become the greatest team ever in the NBA, but are they better than Michael Jordan's Bulls in the 90s?

With a current BetMGM win total over/under at 69.5 wins (-140 over/+115 under), Oklahoma City is currently favored to become the third 70-win team in NBA history. The -140 odds for “over 69.5” imply a more than 58 percent chance of getting there.

Shoving Chet Holmgren to the ground, Grayson Allen was up to his usual antics. A couple of hard-fought plays between both players finally boiled over. Both teams went at it as the Oklahoma City Thunder were in the middle of an eye-popping 138-89 NBA Cup win over the Phoenix Suns.

Phoenix Suns trailed by as many as 53 points in 138-89 loss at defending NBA champion Oklahoma City in NBA Cup quarterfinal game.

Without those two star guards, it wasn't much of a contest. Oklahoma City outscored the Suns by 10 or more points in every quarter and at one point extended their lead to 53. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and Chet Holmgren combined for 52 as the Thunder ultimately won by 49, 138-89.
