The 2020–21 Oklahoma City Thunder season was the 13th season of the franchise in Oklahoma City and the 55th in the National Basketball Association (NBA). This is the first season since 2014–15 without head coach Billy Donovan, as he mutually agreed to part ways with the Thunder on September 8, 2020, and 14 days later, went on to become the new head coach of the Chicago Bulls.[1] For the first time since 2012–13, long-time players Steven Adams and André Roberson were not on the roster, as Adams was traded to the New Orleans Pelicans, and Roberson signed with the Brooklyn Nets.

On November 11, the Thunder promoted assistant and former Oklahoma City Blue coach Mark Daigneault as their new head coach. At the age of 35, Daigneault is currently the youngest active head coach in the NBA, after the Minnesota Timberwolves fired third-year head coach Ryan Saunders on February 21, 2021.[2]

The 2020–21 season was the team's first time since 2014–15 missing the playoffs and their first losing season since 2008–09, the team's inaugural season in Oklahoma City. It was also the fourth time under Sam Presti's tenure that the team had missed the playoffs. Power forward Al Horford, who was acquired by the Thunder via trade on December 8, 2020, also missed the playoffs for the first time in his 14-year career.

2 53 Cassius Winston PG  United States Michigan State

Before the start of the 2020 NBA draft period, the Thunder's first-round selection (held by the Denver Nuggets) was stuck as the 25th pick of the draft (while their own pick they traded to the Philadelphia 76ers was originally the 22nd pick) before the NBA suspended their season on March 12, 2020 after discovering a Jazz player had COVID-19 before the Thunder's game against them was suspended.[3] However, while the NBA resumed their season, the selection they had from Denver stayed as the 25th pick of the draft due to tiebreakers. They also held their own second round pick with the Thunder's second-round pick being the 53rd pick of the draft.[4]
