Thunder honors the late Bob Barry Jr. with media room plaque

When media members walked into the press room for Tuesday night's Thunder season opener, they were greeted by a familiar face.

It was Bob Barry, Jr.

The Thunder honored the late sportscaster by hanging a plaque with his likeness in the media room. BBJ, as he was affectionately referred to by many, is the first media member to be honored with a plaque in the Thunder media room.
