Oklahoma City Thunder News: Alex Caruso makes one major request after winning the NBA championship Alex Caruso expects the Oklahoma City Thunder to gain more recognition from the league moving forward for winning the NBA championship, starting with getting featured on the Christmas Day schedule next season.

Until you win, they dont really care about you.

Theyre not going to put you on TV.

Theyre not going to talk about you.

But once you win, you cant ignore it.

From that aspect, we better play on Christmas next year, Caruso said on the Pat McAfee Show.

I would love to play Christmas morning and have the rest of the day to watch football.

That would be awesome.

The Oklahoma City Thunder havent played on December 25 since 2018, when they lost 113-109 to the Houston Rockets .

Before that, theyd played on Christmas every year from 2010 to 2018.
