The Oklahama City Thunder have recently relocated from Seattle (formerly the Seattle Supersonics), but the newest franchise in the NBA is the Charlotte Bobcats.
The Seattle SuperSonics relocated to Oklahoma City in 2008 primarily due to financial struggles and ownership issues. The team's owner, Clay Bennett, sought a new arena deal in Seattle, which ultimately fell through.
