OKLAHOMA CITY -- Oklahoma City's new NBA franchise has finally set a date to announce its name and team colors.
The team announced Wednesday that it would unveil the new name and colors simultaneously on its Web site and at a downtown event on Sept. 3.
Clay Bennett's ownership group has applied for trademarks for six names: Thunder, Energy, Wind, Marshalls, Barons and Bison.
Oklahoma City television station KOCO has reported that the choice will be Thunder, but Bennett has refused to comment on what the name will be.
The former Seattle SuperSonics announced on July 2 that they would be moving to Oklahoma City.
