He failed to hit the 20-point mark in his three games before this too, so this is just what his managers wanted to see. Luguentz Dort gets a ton of praise too as he drained five 3-pointers for 28 points, two boards, two steals and two blocks in 37 minutes.
Keep in mind that he’s never shot worse than 47% in any of his three previous seasons, so he’s starting to get back to his efficient and productive self. Last time he was active, SGA went nuts for 39 points and his shot is falling more often lately, which could be huge for him given his career-low 41.4% shooting from the floor. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander missed his last “game” (the one his team lost by an NBA-worst 73 points to the Grizzlies) due to entering concussion protocols but looked just fine in the Thunder’s first win in nine games, scoring 30 points (9-of-19 FGs) with a career-high 13 assists, two rebounds, two blocks and two turnovers in 37 minutes. SGA comes up on top in duel with Cade Cunningham 10 games on Monday, a busy one per usual, so let’s go. It feels like we just started, but that seems to be how it always goes, so be sure to take each and every night of NBA basketball and enjoy it to the fullest. Week 8 is already here, and the season will be one-third of the way through by the time it’s over.
