Certain names have become Oklahoma City pillars, staples synonymous with the Thunder brand.
Russell Westbrook. Nick Collison. Sam Presti. Steven Adams. Marc St. Yves.
Wait, what… who?
To fans, one of these things is not like the other. But if you ask anyone within the tight knit Thunder organization about St. Yves, or Saint as he’s affectionately known, they’ll convince you the man in charge of team jerseys should have his own hanging from The Peake’s rafters.
“Saint exemplifies everything good that the Thunder stands for,” Matt Tumbleson, the Thunder’s Vice President of Basketball Communications, told me at the film’s virtual presser.
