The OKC Thunder are one of four teams that will begin their 2025 summer in the Salt Lake City Summer League early in July. The team will start in Salt Lake City and then participate in the wider Las Vegas Summer League later on. So far, the Thunder have been quiet in the offseason. Their only addition in the 2025 NBA draft was Thomas Sorber, a 6-foot-9 center from Georgetown.
Oklahoma City fans are still excited for the Summer League because of Nikola Topic. The Thunder drafted the Serbian point guard with the 12th pick in 2024, but a torn ACL kept him off the court for the entire season. He, along with Sorber, Ajay Mitchell and Dillon Jones, could be the leaders of the Thunder this summer. However, the team has not confirmed their participation just yet.
Oklahoma City coach Mark Daigneault has been one of the best leaders in the NBA after stepping into the position in 2020. He spent time with the Oklahoma City Blue, the Thunder's G League affiliate, before getting promoted. Daigneault and general manager Sam Presti have put a lot of time into the development of the team's young pieces, emphasizing the NBA Summer League.

The Thunder are one of the youngest teams in the NBA, and their Summer League roster is full of young talent, regardless of whether Topic and others play or not. Here's a look at the team's roster and schedule heading into the summer.

The key players for the Thunder would be Dillon Jones, Ajay Mitchell, Branden Carlson, Thomas Sorber and Nikola Topic. The first four got minutes throughout the season for Daigneault last year.
