The Oklahoma City Thunder players have turned post-game interview interruptions into a lighthearted tradition. Others chime in with playful antics whenever a teammate sits down for an interview. Their 103-101 victory over the Los Angeles Clippers was no exception, as Jalen Williams and other Thunder players took it upon themselves to add some humor to the moment.
After the game, Alex Caruso was fielding questions from Nick Gallo when the Thunder players began throwing towels at him in an attempt to throw him off. Amid the chaos, Jalen Williams took a different approach. Rather than disrupting Caruso directly, he decided to accessorize Gallo, first placing a cap on his head and then adding a chain while the reporter was mid-sentence.

Despite the distractions, Gallo remained composed and continued the interview without missing a beat. However, once the interview ended, Jalen humorously reclaimed his cap and chain. The Thunder’s spirits were understandably high, as Sunday’s victory marked their sixth consecutive win, keeping them firmly atop the Western Conference standings.
This wasn’t the first time the Thunder players were seen playfully irritating their teammates. During their dominant 133-100 victory over the Philadelphia 76ers, they were also spotted pestering Jaylin Williams.

Before his injury, Williams had been enjoying the best season of his young career. Through 61 games, he posted career highs across the board, averaging 21.3 points, 5.5 rebounds, and 5.3 assists per game.
Now in his third season with the Thunder, he has become vital to the team’s success. However, despite Williams in the lineup, Oklahoma City has shown no signs of slowing down and has maintained its winning momentum.
