The Thunder are bringing back Luguentz Dort to anchor their defense.

The Thunder are bringing back a vital piece of their championship core. Oklahoma City announced that it will exercise a team option for swingman Luguentz Dort Monday, keeping the defensive stalwart with the only NBA team he’s ever known.

Dort, a champion with the Thunder in 2025, is one of only four players in Oklahoma City’s history to be named All-Defensive First Team.

The 27-year-old has averaged 11.6 points per game in seven seasons with the Thunder, and he averaged 8.3 points per game last year on 38.5 percent shooting.
