Billy Donovan won't have his full complement of assistant coaches on the bench with him in Orlando, but six of his seven assistants were included in the Thunder's travel party.
Longtime Thunder assistant Maurice Cheeks, 63, made the trip. He'll sit on the first row of the bench with Donovan, Brian Keefe and Mark Daigneault. Assistants Dave Bliss, David Akinyooye and Mike Wilks are also with the team.
Vin Bhavnani is the only Thunder assistant who isn't in the Disney World bubble. Bhavnani joined the Thunder 12 years ago as the team's video coordinator. He worked five years as manager of advance scouting/player development, and is in his fourth season as an assistant coach.
