While the Thunder did not receive the 76ers pick during the draft lottery, they still own the 15th, 24th and either the 44th or 45th pick in the upcoming 2025 draft. Because of this, Oklahoma City will have another opportunity to add more young talent to their team next season to make another deep playoff run.

Teams that win Game 5 of a 2-2 best-of-seven NBA playoff series have gone on to win the series 81.3% of the time (191-44).

The Oklahoma City picked up a series-tying Game 4 victory against the Denver Nuggets on Sunday afternoon, using a strong fourth quarter for a 92-87 win. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander scored a team-best 25 points to lead OKC to a much-needed win, and the Thunder outscored the Nuggets 29-18 in the fourth quarter.
