THUNDER SQUAD SHOW: Oklahoma City TRADING For Giannis Antetokounmpo? NBA Trade Deadline Rumors Jan 29, 2026

Show notes

Oklahoma City Thunder rumors and news today with Tyler Jones, Rylan Stiles, and Jeremy Lamb begin today with Giannis Antetokounmpo. There are Oklahoma City Thunder trade rumors swirling around about a deal for Giannis Antetokounmpo at the NBA Trade Deadline, after he submitted a formal trade request from the Milwaukee Bucks. Should Sam Presti consider a deal for the Greek Freak? A Giannis Antetokounmpo trade package would likely have to include guys like Chet Holmgren, Lu Dort, or Cason Wallace. In other Oklahoma City Thunder news, Isaiah Hartenstein returns to the lineup and we have some other key OKC Thunder injury news to discuss. Also in other NBA news, it seems unlikely Nikola Jokić will play in this Sunday's Oklahoma City Thunder vs Denver Nuggets game, which means Shai Gilgeous-Alexander has the inside track to win the MVP. How does Jokić's injury affect SGA? Also, former OKC Thunder big man Steven Adams suffered a season-ending injury. What does this mean for Kevin Durant and the Houston Rockets, as well as how does it shake up things in the Western Conference?
