Seattle Supersonics 4 Star

Seattle Supersonics
NBA

The Seattle SuperSonics (also called the Seattle Sonics) were an American professional basketball team based in Seattle, Washington that played in the Pacific and Northwest Divisions of the National Basketball Association (NBA) from 1967 until 2008. The team relocated to Oklahoma City as the Oklahoma City Thunder. The SuperSonics nickname, logo and color scheme will be made available to any future NBA team in Seattle. According to the team's new owners, the Sonics' franchise history will be "shared" between the Thunder and any future Seattle team.

The SuperSonics won the NBA Championship in 1979 and were one of two teams of the five major men's professional sports teams in Seattle - the Seattle Mariners, the Seattle Pilots, the Seattle Metropolitans (who won the 1917 Stanley Cup), the Seattle Seahawks, and the SuperSonics - to have won a championship. Sam Schulman owned the team from its 1967 inception until 1983. It was also owned by Barry Ackerley (1983-2001) and the Basketball Club of Seattle, headed by Starbucks chairman Howard Schultz (2001-2006). In 2006, the SuperSonics were purchased by Oklahoma City businessman Clay Bennett. After failing to reach agreement on a new arena in the Seattle area, the SuperSonics moved to Oklahoma City before the 2008-2009 season when they reached a $45 million settlement with the city of Seattle to pay off the team's lease with KeyArena early.
