The Oklahoma City Thunder (and the Seattle Supersonics before them) have 51 jersey numbers worn by the players who have suited up for the franchise since its founding at the start of the 1967-68 season. To commemorate the players who wore those numbers, Thunder Wire is covering the entire history of jersey numbers and the players who sported them since the founding of the team.
And while those Supersonics jerseys may not remain part of the franchise history should a new team be established in Seattle as was the case with the return of the Charlotte Hornets, they are part of the Thunder’s history today.
For this article, we continue with the 33rd jersey number in the series, jersey No. 33, with 17 players in total having donned the jersey in the history of the franchise.
The 15th of those players did so in the Oklahoma City Thunder era, forward alum Mitch McGary. After ending his college career at Michigan, McGary was picked up with the 21st overall selection of the 2004 NBA draft by the Thunder.
The Chesterton, Indiana native played both seasons of his NBA career with OKC, leaving the league afterward.
During his time suiting up for the Thunder, McGary wore only jersey No. 33 and put up 4.4 points and 3.5 rebounds per game.
