RESPECT IS THE BASELINE. That’s a given for any person that Mark Daigneault comes across. Admiration, that’s the next level of connection; it’s what the new Thunder head coach taps into with the players, coaches and staffers he works with.

The 35-year-old Daigneault has been promoted steadily up the Thunder ladder, from OKC Blue head coach to Thunder assistant to now, the lead job on the Thunder bench.
