About the episode
In the second episode of ‘Home and Away,’ it’s time to hit the road again with The Ringer’s J. Kyle Mann, this time to scenic and stunning Oklahoma City to explore the basketball identity and culture of the Sooner State’s largest city and its surrounding area. Come along as we soak up the Oklahoma City Thunder’s rowdy home atmosphere at the Paycom Center to see if their prodigious young core—led by MVP candidate Shai Gilgeous-Alexander—is ready to take on the challenge of advancing in the playoffs. Watch a panel of Oklahoman media members unpack the arc of the franchise thus far. See the passion of the players and administration for Oklahoma’s first Native-owned professional basketball team, the Potawatomi Fire, and much more.
