Forty-three teams in NBA history have started a season 7-0. Only one of them, the 2024-25 Oklahoma City Thunder, have won their first seven games all by double digits. The Thunder’s closest game — a 105-93 win over the Spurs on Oct. 30 — wasn’t at all close.

It's too easy to lose to a lesser team because of shooting variance, or because of a few injuries, or even just a quick turnaround and some travel after your last game. Nobody won more than their first five games last season.

It has been a dominant start for the Oklahoma City Thunder to begin the season. After an offseason full of trades, big signings, and draft picks, the organization received plenty of props. The hype machine was running rampant for the Thunder — still the youngest team in the NBA — and rightfully so.
