Every Iowa player drafted by the Oklahoma City Thunder

The Oklahoma City Thunder have built their roster through various means, with the NBA draft playing a significant role in their success since the team's inception as the Seattle SuperSonics. Many of the franchise's top players have joined the Thunder through direct selections during the annual draft or via trades executed on that day.

In addition to selecting star players through the draft, the Thunder have also drafted notable alumni each offseason. Certain colleges have been more prominent in providing prospects, but the Thunder have always cast a wide net in their search for talent. This article will list every player drafted by the Thunder from Iowa.

Ben McGilmer, a forward, was selected in the 6th round (3rd pick, 74th overall) during the 2014 NBA Draft. He played at Iowa for three seasons and did not make the team. Fred Brown, another forward, was chosen in the 1st round (6th pick, 6th overall) during the 1971 NBA Draft. He attended Iowa for two seasons before spending 13 seasons with the Thunder.
