Thunder quietly receive major gift from NBA that no one's talking about

The NBA recently released the full regular season schedule for all 30 teams in the association, and OKC Thunder fans are absolutely elated.

From hosting infamous former franchise cornerstone Kevin Durant for their ring ceremony on opening night to being in line for 34 nationally televised games, it appears Oklahoma City is being given the royal treatment from the schedule-makers heading into the 2025-26 campaign.

However, outside of these in-your-face perks of the new 82-game reveal is one that's flying well under the radar, as the greatest gift the Thunder have received is actually the fact that they'll only be seeing 13 back-to-back contests throughout the entire season, which ties for the lowest mark in the league.
