Episode Details

The Oklahoma City Thunder just pulled off a seismic trade, sending Lu Dort to the Hawks for three second-round picks — and threw in a three-team twist that landed the Mavericks top draft pick Zaccharie Risacher. Dort, a seven-year Thunder staple who helped win a title and became a beloved city icon, leaves behind a legacy etched in “Dorture Chamber” defense and emotional farewell posts from teammates and even the mayor.
