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 26th jersey number in the series, jersey No. 24, with 14 players in total having donned the jersey in the history of the franchise.
The 13th of those players did so in the Seattle SuperSonics era, wing alum Richie Frahm. After ending his college career at Gonzaga, Frahm would go unselected in the 2000 NBA draft, instead playing abroad and in other domestic leagues until he signed with the SuperSonics in 2003.
His stay with the team would span a single season, ending when he was drafted by the (then) Charlotte Bobcats (now, Hornets) in the 2004 NBA expansion draft. During his time suiting up for the Sonics, Frahm wore only jersey No. 24 and put up 3.4 points and 1.0 rebounds per game.
