4 OKLAHOMA CITY NOTES.... Race to 4,000 and Beyond: Kevin Durant, the NBA s 3 rd leading scorer (28.1 ppg) became the second youngest NBA player (behind LeBron James) to reach 4,000 career points scored as he knocked-down a 17-foot jump shot midway through the first quarter during OKC s most recent contest versus the Boston Celtics. It took Durant all but 173 games played in his young career to reach the 4,000-point plateau. Based on his current scoring clip, Durant is on pace to reach the 5,000 career points list later this season at Minnesota (2/21). New and Improved: Through the first five weeks of the NBA season, Thunder second-year guard Russell Westbrook has shown an improved all-around game. During his first nineteen contests, Westbrook is averaging 16.3 points, 7.1 assists and 4.5 rebounds in 34.2 minutes per game. Only a select number of NBA players have maintained such averages throughout the course of an entire season. Below is a list of those second-year players to average 16-plus points, 6-plus assists and 4-plus rebounds during their sophomore NBA seasons. Second-Year Player Averages (last 10 years) Year PPG APG RPG Russell Westbrook (OKC) Chris Paul LeBron James Dwyane Wade Gilbert Arenas Steve Francis Winning with D: Despite their loss to the Boston Celtics on Friday night, the Thunder ranks 7 th in the NBA by allowing 95.4 points per game (allowed points per game last season). The Thunder has held their opponent to 90 points or fewer in seven-of-nineteen games this season (6-1 record in such contests). Oklahoma City also ranks 12 th in opponent field goal percentage by allowing their opposition to shoot 44.6%. Lastly. Defense is quickly becoming the trademark during Thunder victories this season. In the ten Thunder wins (SAC, DET, ORL, LAC, SA, MIA, WAS, UTA, MIL and PHI), OKC is allowing only 90.8 points per game on 42.6% shooting. Road Warriors: With their win over the Heat in Miami (11/17), the Thunder won three strait road contests in the first month of the season. As a point of reference, the OKC franchise failed to win three consecutive road contests in each of the last two seasons. Through the first four weeks of the season, no team had played more road contests then the Oklahoma City Thunder (as of 11/24). With nine road games already under their belt, OKC owns a 5-4 road away from the Ford Center after their victory versus the Jazz in Utah on 11/24. Last year, the Thunder won a total of eight road contests and it took OKC until March 10 th (at SAC) before the team would claim their fifth road win. KD in Rarified Air: With his 28-point performance on 11-of-22 shooting versus the Jazz in Utah, Kevin Durant became just the fourth player in league history, joining LeBron James (twice), Shaquille O Neal and Michael Jordan, to score at least 400 points during the first 15 games of a season at age 21 or younger. Through the first 15 games of the season, KD maintained a 27.1 scoring clip (5 th in the NBA). Red-hot scoring streaks are not unfamiliar territory to Durant. Last season prior to his injury at Dallas (2/27), Kevin Durant found himself on a scoring tear seldom witnessed by a second year NBA player. In the 17 games prior to his injury (1/16 vs. DET through 2/24 vs. LAL), Durant posted a scoring average of 32.3 points per game. During this five-week long span, Durant led the NBA in scoring by a 2.4 point per game margin (LeBron James; 29.9 ppg). It had been 35 years since a second year player last averaged 32+ points across a 17-game span (Bob McAdoo; 34.7 ppg during the 1974 season). Youth Movement: The Thunder enters the season as the second youngest team in the NBA with an average age of 25 years and 130 days (as of opening night). They trail only the Memphis Grizzlies who boast an average age of 25 years and 92 days. Additionally, the OKC opening night (10/28) starting lineup (Durant, Green, Krstic, Sefolosha and Westbrook) was the youngest in the league with an average age of 23 years and 179 days. For a matter of comparison, the age of the average NBA roster is 26 years and 329 days and the oldest team in the league entering the season was the San Antonio Spurs with an average age of 29 years and 73 days. There are currently eight players on the Thunder roster age 23 or younger. Filling up the Ford: The Thunder began the season right where they left off with another sellout. Those that made up the capacity crowd of 18,203 on opening night (10/28) in Oklahoma City were greeted with a new and improved Ford Center. As part of a taxpayer funded initiative passed in March 2008, numerous arena improvements were recently completed. The Ford Center now boasts a state-of-the art scoreboard, new terrace suites and a courtside club to go along with a new and improved Thunder locker room. Last season, fans from near and far flocked to Oklahoma City to witness Thunder basketball. During the Thunder s inaugural season in OKC, the Ford Center recorded 18 sellouts (19,136) including eight consecutive to end the season. In 41 home games, the Thunder s average attendance topped the 18,700 mark (11 th best in the NBA), accounting for an average capacity of nearly 98.0%. This season, the Thunder has sold-out seven of their first ten home contests. The Thunder is drawing an average crowd of 17,939 through the first five weeks of the season (98.5% capacity).

5 Harden Heats Up: After failing to record double-figure scoring totals during his first 11 NBA games, OKC rookie James Harden broke-out to score 10+ points in five strait OKC contests at the end of last month (11/18-11/27), including back-to-back 24- point and 25-point performances versus the Magic and Wizards, respectively. Including his 15-point effort (perfect 3-of-3 on 3- point FG s) vs. MIL (11/27), Harden averaged 16.8 points on 51.9% shooting (50.0% 3-point shooting; 14-28) during the nineday span. During OKC s win versus the Washington Wizards on 11/20, Harden came off the bench to record a season-high 25 points on 8-of-11 shooting as he single-handedly outscored the Wizard s reserves (25-20). In the Thunder match-ups vs. Orlando (11/18) and Washington (11/20), Harden connected on 10-of-13 3-point field goals including seven consecutive makes during this two-game stretch. The seven consecutive makes ties a rookie record for the most consecutive 3-pointers converted by a first-year player since Michael Dickerson made eight strait for the Houston Rockets (5/4/99-5/5/99). His six 3-point makes at Orlando (11/18) tied a rookie franchise record (Rich Frahm; 12/20/03). Defending When it Matters: During the Thunder s victory over the Los Angeles Clippers (11/11) at STAPLES Center, OKC held the Clippers to just 10 4 th quarter points on 15.8% shooting (3-19 FG s). The 10 points surrendered in the 4 th quarter is the fewest allowed since the season when the OKC franchise held the New Orleans Hornets to an all-time franchise low six 4 th quarter points. Through the first 19 games of the season, the Thunder is limiting their opponents to 22.2 points during the final 12 minutes of regulation. In the ten Thunder wins, OKC opponents are shooting just 40.7% ( FG s) in the fourth quarter. Strong back-2-back Showings at the Ford: With their victory over the Wizards on 11/20 and their win over the Milwaukee Bucks on 11/27, the OKC franchise won back-to-back home games by 18-plus points for the first time since November of 2004 (Nov. 5 th 10 th ). During this two-game home tear, the Thunder averaged points on 50.3% shooting (48.6% 3-point shooting). The 127 points scored versus the Wizards on 11/20 was the most recorded in regulation (excluding overtime) by the OKC franchise since February 21 st, 2001 ( win vs. DEN). First Impressions: With their victory over the Sacramento Kings on October 28 th, the OKC franchise secured their first opening night victory since 2003 when they defeated the Los Angeles Clippers in Saitama, Japan. During the Thunder s wire-to-wire win at the Ford Center, Russell Westbrook set a career-high with 13 assists to go along with 14 points and seven rebounds. With his 13 assists, Westbrook single-handily matched the entire assist total for the entire Kings team. The last time an OKC franchise player matched the entire opposing team s assist total occurred in 2006 when Luke Ridnour handed-out 13 assists in a defeat vs. the Portland Trail Blazers. With their most recent win vs. PHI (12/2), the Thunder enters tonight s contest versus the Golden State Warriors with a record of 10-9 which is the best start for the OKC franchise through the first seventeen games since the season when the team started the season with a record of Early Returns: After recording double-figure assist totals nine times during his rookie season ( ), Russell Westbrook has already posted five 10-plus assist performances through the first five weeks of the season. Westbrook, who currently ranks 7 th in the NBA with 7.1 assists per game, has increased his assist total after averaging 5.2 apg during his rookie season. Oklahoma City is 5-0 this year when Westbrook records 10+ assists. Perfection from the Stripe: During OKC s loss to the Sacramento Kings (11/10), Kevin Durant recorded a game-high 37 points in large part due to his efficiency from the charity stripe. Durant set a franchise record by converting 18 made free throws without a miss (also a NBA season-high). Setting all-time franchise records from the free throw line is not unfamiliar to Durant. Last season versus the Los Angeles Clippers (1/23/09), KD converted 24 made free throws (on 26 attempts) en route to a 46-point performance at STAPLES Center. Durant s 24 made free throws set a Thunder franchise record. In addition, Durant set a NBA season-high for most FT s made during the season. In doing so, Durant became one of only four players over the last 20 years to convert 24+ FT s in a single game (MR; LeBron James: 24-of-28 on 3/12/06). Back-2-Back Sets: With their game in Orlando on November 18 th, the Thunder closed-out the third of 18 back-to-back sets this season. OKC secured splits in each of their first three back-to-back match-ups this year. So far this season, the Thunder is 2-1 on the first night of a back-to-back and 1-2 on the second night. Last season, the Thunder posted an 8-28 record in their back-to-back pairings (3-15 in first game, 5-13 in second game). Let the Balloting Begin: Thunder forward Kevin Durant, forward Jeff Green and guard Russell Westbrook all appeared on the 2010 NBA All-Star Ballot which was unveiled earlier this month during a special tip-off event in Dallas, the Official Host City of NBA All-Star Weekend Voting will take place at all Thunder home contests at the Ford Center for games played between Sunday, November 15 vs. the LA Clippers and all the way through Oklahoma City s match-up with Indiana on January 9 th. The Thunder trio can also be voted-in via online balloting at thunder.nba.com which begins immediately and continues on through January 18. The 2010 NBA All-Star Game will be played at Cowboys Stadium in Arlington, Texas, before an expected crowd of more than 80,000 the largest group ever to witness a live basketball game, on Sunday, Feb. 14, 2010.

6 Technically Speaking: With three (individual) technical fouls called through the first nineteen games of the season, the Thunder continue their run of being one of the fewest T d-up teams in the league. During the season, 11 individual technicals (excludes defensive technicals) were whistled on Thunder players and coaches. This total was the fewest awarded to any NBA team during the season. In addition, the Thunder committed 31 total technical fouls (includes individual and defensive 3-second technicals) which tied for the fewest in the NBA (San Antonio). This total also represents the fewest T s committed in the NBA since the season (Golden State; 22). Lots of Magic at the Ford Center: During the Thunder s victory over the Orlando Magic on November 8 th, OKC held ORL to 30 second half points on 29.4% field goal shooting (10-34 FG s). The 28-point margin of victory represents the largest Thunder win in Ford Center history. In knocking-off last season s Eastern Conference Champions, the Thunder shot a seasonhigh 57.1% while handing-out a season-best 27 assists. Meanwhile, Orlando shot a season-worst 36.8% while converting a season-low 25 made field goals. Orlando was held to fewer than 75 points for just the third time in the last three-plus seasons. With the victory, the Thunder notched their third win of the year. It was not until December 19 th of last season (vs. TOR) before the Thunder would claim their third win. What Lazy Days of Summer?: The Thunder was the only NBA team to participate in multiple summer leagues this past offseason. Seven players currently on the Thunder roster saw action in the Orlando Pro Summer League (July 5-10) and the NBA Summer League in Las Vegas (July 10-19). Thunder second-year guard Russell Westbrook and OKC Rookie James Harden were both named to the 2009 Orlando Pro All-Summer League First-Team. In addition, Thunder forward D.J. White received secondteam honors for his performance in Orlando. In four Orlando Summer League contests Westbrook posted averages of 22.3 points (.519 FG%), 3.5 rebounds and 7.8 assists in 32.3 minutes per game. Harden, the No. 3 overall selection in this past summer s NBA draft participated in a total of nine summer league contests and recorded averages of 14.7 points (.506 FG%), 3.3 rebounds and 2.4 assists in 27.9 minutes per game. Country First: The OKC trio of Kevin Durant, Jeff Green and Russell Westbrook were all invited to participate in the 2009 USA Basketball Men s National Team mini-camp held in Las Vegas this past July. In preparation for the 2010 World Championships and the 2012 Olympic Games in London, USA basketball hosted the three-day event which included an intra-squad Blue vs. White scrimmage on the final day. Thunder Head Athletic Trainer, Joe Sharpe was also invited to participate in the Team USA event. Summer Oversees: Both Nenad Krstic (Serbia) and Thabo Sefolosha (Switzerland) spent the summer months representing their counties as they competed in the 2009 EuroBasket Championships held in Poland. While Sefolosha and Switzerland participated in the Division B bracket, Krstic helped lead the Serbia team to the Championship Game vs. Spain in the upper Division A bracket. In nine EuroBasket contests, Krstic posted averages of 13.4 points, 4.8 rebounds and 1.6 assists in 23.4 minutes per game. Meanwhile, Sefolosha played in four games for the Swiss team and complied averages of 15.8 points, 6.5 rebounds and 3.3 assists in 37.3 minutes per contest. Durant Dazzles: Through his first two NBA seasons, Kevin Durant has already proven that he is one of the elite scorers in the game. Durant, the NBA s 6 th leading scorer last season, averaged 25.3 points in just his second season removed from the University of Texas. He became the NBA s 5 th second-year player in the last 20 years to average better than 25 points per game. NBA s Top Second-Year Scorers (Last 20 Years) Kevin Durant (OKC) LeBron James (CLE) Vince Carter (TOR) Shaquille O Neal (ORL) David Robinson (SA) Not Two Shabby: After two seasons in the NBA, Kevin Durant boasts a 22.7 scoring average, the fifth highest career average for any second year player in the modern era (dating back to 1989). Only Shaquille O Neal (26.4), David Robinson (25.0), LeBron James (24.1) and Vince Carter (22.9) posted higher career scoring averages after their first two NBA seasons. Sophomore Studs: At the end of last season, second year players Kevin Durant and Jeff Green combined to average 41.8 points per game. The last pair of second year teammates to average a higher total was Allen Iverson and Jerry Stackhouse for the Philadelphia 76ers who more than a decade ago combined to average 44.2 points per game during the season

7 Young Guns: During the season, the Thunder registered a majority of their scoring from either first or second year players. In fact, OKC rookies and second year players combined to score 4,780 of the 7,952 total Thunder points. This total represents 60.1% of the OKC points scored, the highest percent of any team in the NBA during the season. The last team with a higher percentage of points coming from rookies and second year players occurred during the season when the Boston Celtics received 68.7% of their scoring from a young team which included the likes of Antoine Walker, Ron Mercer, and Walter McCarty. Rookie & Second Year Scoring (as % of team total) Oklahoma City 60.1% Memphis Grizzlies 50.3% Los Angeles Clippers 39.9% Miami Heat 38.9% Houston Rockets 32.0%. QUICK HITS.
