The Oklahoma City Thunder should feel pretty fortunate to be in Chicago on Saturday.
During the team’s overnight flight to Midway Airport, its plane suffered a huge dent in its nose. The plane still arrived as planned and on schedule, according to ESPN.
Upon arriving early Saturday morning, some Thunder players took to social media to share pictures of the damage.
I guess we hit something? 30,000 feet up… pic.twitter.com/Rem9GmwRKq

This is just bizarre.
The flight reportedly was rough, though nothing particularly extreme. The cause of the damage currently is unknown — which should make everyone feel very comfortable.
Personally, we like Steven Adams’ idea of enlisting NASA to figure out what gave the plan a busted schnoz.
