  "account": "The Oklahoma City Thunder have built their roster through traditional NBA draft methods, including direct selections and trades. Several of the team's star players were chosen via the annual draft or during trades held on draft day. In addition to these draft picks, the Thunder have also selected various alumni each offseason.\n\nOut of Boston College, the franchise has sourced several prospects, with prestigious programs and smaller institutions consistently providing high-caliber talent. Now, let's examine every Boston College player who has been drafted by the Oklahoma City Thunder.\n\nWillie Wolters, a forward, was selected in the 8th round (12th pick, 91st overall) in the 1967 NBA Draft. He played at Boston College for three seasons but never made the team.\n\nDominic Pressley, a guard, was taken in the 5th round (6th pick, 99th overall) during the 1986 NBA Draft. Pressley attended Boston College for four seasons, but he did not play with the Thunder.\n\nDana Barros, another guard, was the 1st round pick (16th pick, 16th overall) in the 1989 NBA Draft. He also attended Boston College for four seasons and played with the Thunder for four seasons.\n\nLastly, Reggie Jackson, a guard, was the 1st round pick (24th pick, 24th overall) in the 2011 NBA Draft. Jackson was part of the Boston College team for three seasons and spent four seasons with the Oklahoma City Thunder.",
