BREAKING: Thunder Select Thomas Sorber with 15th Pick in 2025 NBA Draft

 

With the 15th overall pick in the 2025 NBA Draft, the Oklahoma City Thunder have selected Thomas Sorber, the dominant big man out of Georgetown University. ⚡️

 

Known for his elite shot-blocking ability and interior presence, Sorber brings size, strength, and defensive grit to a young and rising Thunder squad. The 6-foot-10 center averaged 14.6 points, 8.3 rebounds, and 2.7 blocks per game in his sophomore season with the Hoyas, quickly gaining a reputation as one of college basketball’s most physical and impactful post players.

 

Thunder GM Sam Presti praised Sorber’s toughness and upside, calling him “a foundational piece for our interior defense.” With Chet Holmgren anchoring the frontcourt and Shai Gilgeous-Alexander leading the charge, Sorber’s arrival is expected to add much-needed depth and muscle in the paint.

 

Oklahoma City’s selection signals a commitment to building a defensive identity while continuing their playoff push in the Western Conference. Fans are already buzzing about the Thunder’s potential twin-tower future with Holmgren and Sorber.

 

Thunder Nation, get ready — Thomas Sorber is bringing the thunder to OKC! 💥🏀⚡️
