Top Shai Gilgeous-Alexander News

  • Thunder's Shai Gilgeous-Alexander: Sits in final stanza

    Gilgeous-Alexander totaled 26 points (8-22 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 10-11 FT), eight rebounds, three assists and one block over 29 minutes during Tuesday's 123-103 loss to the Trail Blazers.

    Gilgeous-Alexander led Oklahoma City in scoring but had to work hard for it, mostly scoring at the line while his outside shot never came around. With the game out of reach, he sat the entire fourth quarter, ending the Thunder's four-game winning streak. Jalen Williams (leg), Chet Holmgren (knee) and Cason Wallace (shoulder) are all hurt, so he's carrying more of the offense than usual. He gets a chance to bounce back right away when the teams meet again Wednesday in Portland.

  • Thunder's Shai Gilgeous-Alexander: Scores 30 points with nine dimes

    Gilgeous-Alexander racked up 30 points (11-20 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 5-6 FT), two rebounds, nine assists, one block and two turnovers across 29 minutes in Saturday's 114-75 win over the Wizards.

    This was Gilgeous-Alexander's fifth 30-point performance of the season, and he set a season high in assists while committing just two turnovers. The Thunder have now won four straight and remain undefeated at home this season.

  • Thunder's Shai Gilgeous-Alexander: Puts up 28 points in win Friday

    Gilgeous-Alexander notched 28 points (11-22 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 3-3 FT), three rebounds, four assists, a steal and a block across 30 minutes in Friday's 128-97 win over the Grizzlies.

    Although Ajay Mitchell turned heads with his 35-point performance, Gilgeous-Alexander posted an efficient showing en route to his fourth straight game surpassing the 25-point mark. The star floor general owns a massive usage rate due to the absence of Jalen Williams (leg) and Chet Holmgren (knee), but he's putting up excellent numbers. He's averaging 32,0 points, 4.0 rebounds and 5.0 assists per game over his last five appearances.

  • Thunder's Shai Gilgeous-Alexander: Erupts for 42 points in victory

    Gilgeous-Alexander amassed 42 points (11-26 FG, 5-11 3Pt, 15-19 FT), eight assists, four rebounds and one block across 35 minutes in Wednesday's 124-116 win over the Cavaliers.

    Gilgeous-Alexander turned in an efficient effort from three-point range and got to the charity stripe often en route to his second straight 40-plus-point performance. The superstar point guard also led all players in assists, dishing out eight dimes for a second consecutive contest as well. The Thunder should continue to rely heavily on the two-time MVP, as they'll be without Cason Wallace (shoulder) and Jalen Williams (leg) for most, if not all, of the campaign. Additionally, Chet Holmgren (knee) is expected to miss at least eight weeks.

  • Thunder's Shai Gilgeous-Alexander: Drops 43 points Monday

    Gilgeous-Alexander posted 43 points (14-35 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 11-12 FT), eight assists, three rebounds, two steals and one block across 39 minutes in Monday's 117-112 win over the Cavaliers.

    Gilgeous-Alexander wasn't shy about hunting his shot with the Thunder shorthanded. The superstar guard didn't deliver his most efficient performance from two-point range, though he was productive from downtown and the charity stripe en route to a season-high scoring total. He also led the Thunder in assists, dishing out a season-best eight dimes after totaling eight over his previous three games.

  • Thunder's Shai Gilgeous-Alexander: Scores 26 points in loss

    Gilgeous-Alexander ended with 26 points (10-20 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 3-4 FT), four rebounds, three assists and one steal over 31 minutes in Saturday's 119-98 loss to Houston.

    Gilgeous-Alexander had a productive game Saturday, reaching the 20-point mark for the fifth time this season. He also shot better from deep after going a combined 3-for-16 from beyond the arc in his last three appearances. With Chet Holmgren (knee), Jalen Williams (leg) and Cason Wallace (shoulder) all sidelined, Gilgeous-Alexander will have more weight on his shoulders, though his shooting percentages could fall if he takes shots that aren't there.

  • Thunder's Shai Gilgeous-Alexander: Gets little help in Wednesday's loss

    Gilgeous-Alexander produced 21 points (7-19 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 6-6 FT), six rebounds, two assists and one steal in 28 minutes during Wednesday's 120-96 loss to the Mavericks.

    Aside from Ajay Mitchell's game-high 29 points, no other OKC player managed to score more than 10 points. Gilgeous-Alexander is struggling to find his shot for the injury-ravaged Thunder, and through five games he's delivered what would be career-low percentages, shooting just 45.9 percent from the floor and 26.5 percent from three-point range. The depleted roster around him is also costing him in other categories -- SGA has averaged more than 5.0 assists in six straight seasons, but so far in 2026-27 he's managed just 3.4 a contest.

  • Thunder's Shai Gilgeous-Alexander: Bounces back in win

    Gilgeous-Alexander ended Sunday's 108-101 victory over the Clippers with 34 points (13-26 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 7-8 FT), six rebounds, five assists, one block and two steals in 36 minutes.

    Gilgeous-Alexander bounced back from a rare sub-20-point performance Thursday, scoring 16 points in the third quarter to help Oklahoma City overcome a deficit. With Jalen Williams suffering a potentially serious left leg injury late in Sunday's contest, Gilgeous-Alexander could be asked to shoulder an even larger offensive workload moving forward.

  • Thunder's Shai Gilgeous-Alexander: Scoring streak comes to an end

    Gilgeous-Alexander closed Thursday's 96-84 win over Denver with 17 points (6-19 FG, 3-11 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds, three assists and one block across 35 minutes.

    Gilgeous-Alexander failed to score at least 20 points for the first time in the past 142 games, bringing to an end what is a record that may never be broken. Credit should go to the Denver defense, forcing Gilgeous-Alexander into a lot of tough shots, ultimately ending with him going 6-of-19 from the floor. Despite the struggles, Oklahoma City managed to pull out the victory, leaving it atop the Western Conference standings. As for Gilgeous-Alexander, it wouldn't be surprising to see him come and score 40 in what promises to be a favorable matchup against the Clippers on Sunday.

  • Thunder's Shai Gilgeous-Alexander: Shines on both ends Tuesday

    Gilgeous-Alexander finished with 32 points (13-27 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 3-4 FT), six rebounds, four assists, three steals and three blocks across 36 minutes in Tuesday's 116-104 win over the Spurs.

    Gilgeous-Alexander led all scorers Tuesday, and he was just as potent on the defensive side of the ball to help the Thunder take down the Spurs to begin the 2026-27 campaign. The 28-year-old averaged 31.1 points, 4.3 rebounds, 6.6 assists and 1.4 steals over 33.2 minutes per contest in 68 regular-season appearances in 2025-26. He also shot 38.6 percent from deep, the second-highest mark of his career. Gilgeous-Alexander is coming off his second consecutive MVP season, but he could earn a third if he continues to play this well moving forward.
