Payton Sandfort Signs With Oklahoma City Thunder
Payton Sandfort, a former Iowa Hawkeyes forward, has signed with the reigning NBA champion Oklahoma City Thunder after going undrafted in the 2025 NBA Draft. Sandfort was a standout in college, averaging 16.7 points, six rebounds, and nearly three assists per game as a senior, and earning honorable mention All-Big Ten honors. Over his four years at Iowa, he scored 1,619 points and established himself as a top three-point shooter, despite significant injuries in his final season. Sandfort is expected to compete for a roster spot and may spend much of his rookie year in the G League as he adapts to the NBA. His signing further strengthens the Iowa connection on the Thunder, who already have assistant coach Grant Gibbs, a former Iowa prep star. Sandfort's resilience and shooting ability make him a promising addition to Oklahoma City.
