The 7-foot-tall man revealed that Christmas is his favorite holiday. Kourtney endeared herself to Thunder fans by revealing that her favorite song Surfing with Swag which became the Thunder’s anthem during the 2024 NBA postseason and the organization even invited the group FLY to perform the hit at the Paycom Center.

The big man revealed himself to be a Michael Jordan fan and called him the greatest basketball player of all time, which could cause controversy in the Thunder locker room since superstar Shai Gilgeous-Alexander has publicly said Kobe Bryant is the greatest player of all time.

After losing the contest, the Oklahoma City center had to dress up as Zeus, the God of Thunder, and list his teammate’s positive qualities, creating some meme potential ahead of his first season in Bricktown.
