The extension keeps Daigneault in OKC for the long haul. He is preparing to enter his fourth season as head coach. Under him, the Thunder went 40-42 and finished a win shy of a playoff berth last season.

The Thunder’s overperformance last season helped Daigneault finish No. 2 in Coach of the Year voting.

In three seasons as head coach, the rebuilding Thunder has gone 86-150 (.364 win percentage).

Daigneault is the fourth head coach in Thunder history after he joined the organization in 2014. He previously coached the G League’s OKC Blue and was an assistant prior to being named the head coach.
