The Thunder has finalized a broadcast partnership with KSBI-TV, the locally-owned over-the-air station. KSBI will air all seven preseason and 17 regular season games, including the team’s opening night game against Milwaukee on Oct. 29.

The deal is a multi-year agreement and KSBI will become the Thunder’s official T.V. station, joining Fox Spots Oklahoma, which will carry 65 regular season games, as the team’s T.V. partners.

KSBI, which is available free over the air to all homes in the OKC area and via cable and satellite, will be re-branded as Thunder TV and feature exclusive game broadcast, replays, pre and postgame shows, a weekly team related show and other team-related programming.

Will the preseason games and the 17 regular season games be available in the Tulsa area?

I’ve had October 29th circled on my calendar for months and I would really like to see the first OKC Thunder game.

I wish KSBI was available on COX in Tulsa.
