The Oklahoma City Thunder (and the Seattle Supersonics before them) have 52 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.
Without further ado, let’s get into the next of those jersey numbers in our series.
And for today’s article, we will continue with the first of four people to wear the No. 50, OKC big man alum Jeremiah Robinson-Earl. After ending his college career at Villanova, Robinson-Earl was picked up with the 32nd overall selection of the 2021 NBA Draft by the New York Knicks.
The Kansas City, Missouri native would play the first two seasons of his pro career with OKC though, after a draft night deal, coming to an end when he was dealt to the Houston Rockets in 2023.
During his time suiting up for the Thunder, Robinson-Earl wore only jersey No. 50 and put up 7.2 points, 4.9 rebounds, and 1.0 assists per game.
