ON JULY 8, Thunder players got dropped off at the ION, the team’s practice facility, with their protective face masks on all the luggage they’ll need for Orlando in tow.
Over a 30-45 minute window, players dropped their bags to get tagged and placed onto a truck bound for the airport, had their temperatures taken and waited their turn to get into the busses.
Abdel Nader and Mike Muscala took a few shots on the rims on the practice court while other Thunder players sat, separated by six or more feet, on the benches that line the court as they often do after practices.
