Shai Gilgeous-Alexander News: Drops 47 points in loss

Gilgeous-Alexander finished with 47 points (17-28 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 12-12 FT), four rebounds, four assists, one steal and one block over 35 minutes in Friday's 117-114 loss to the Pacers.

Gilgeous-Alexander carried a heavy burden for a banged-up Thunder squad, but even his second-highest scoring outing of the season wasn't enough to will Oklahoma City to a win Friday. The superstar guard has reached 30 points in five of the past six contests, including four straight, a sample that's seen him eclipse 40 points on two occasions. While the Thunder haven't been as dominant as some anticipated, that isn't a reflection of Gilgeous-Alexander, who has continued to deliver elite performances throughout the season.
