OKC Thunder Jaylin Williams screams at his teammates after showering him with towels during a live interview

The Oklahoma City Thunder is one of the best teams in the league, currently standing at first place of the Western Conference.

Behind MVP candidate Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, the Thunder are one of the youngest teams, with an average age of 24.14 years old, only behind the Washington Wizards (23.6 years old).

NBA analysts agree that OKC lacks experience on the playoffs and that could work against them once the postseason starts, but nevertheless they are going to be a problem for any team that will deal with Oklahoma City on their way to the NBA Finals.

Jaylin Williams gets tired of his teammates

OKC forward Jaylin Williams had his first career triple-double to help his team beat the Portland Trail Blazers 107-89 on Friday night with Shai Gilgeous-Alexander on the bench. Williams finished with 10 points, 11 rebounds and 11 assists, while Aaron Wiggins scored 30 points and veteran Alex Caruso added another 17 points.

After the game, Williams got interviewed for his milestone and as he was answering the questions, his teammates kept putting towels in his head. At first, Jaylin took it with humour but as the towels kept on coming, he had enough and screamed at the team to stop embarrassing on live TV.

At the end it was all fun and games, as the rest of the Thunder congratulated the young baller on his big night. If OKC plans to make a deep run in the playoffs, they will need every single ounce of talent from players like Jaylin Williams.

OKC is counting on his young head coach

Oklahoma City Thunder head coach Mark Daigneault was named Western Conference Coach of the Month for games played in February, his second career Coach of the Month award after leading the Thunder to an 11-2 record during last month.

The 2023-24 NBA Coach of the Year led the Thunder to its fourth-straight month with double-digit wins while posting 127.7 points per game, a 15.2 net rating and a 124.8 offensive rating, all ranking best in the Western Conference.

Under Daigneault’s leadership, Oklahoma City is off to its best start through 60 games in Thunder history, and with a record of 49-11, Oklahoma City currently leads the Western Conference standings. They are hoping to make a run for the Larry O’Brien Championship Trophy.
