Shai Gilgeous-Alexander Paces Team With 27 Points In Loss
4 years agoOklahoma City Thunder guard Shai Gilgeous-Alexander put up his second straight lucrative scoring effort in a 108-94 loss to the Heat. Gilgeous-Alexander dropped a team-high 27 points with five assists, two rebounds, two treys, a block, and a steal in 35 minutes. The 22-year-old has had no limitations since returning after missing time due to a knee injury, as he's played at least 33 minutes in all four contests. Gilgeous-Alexander has taken it to another level in the last two games, scoring at least 27 points on 60 percent shooting from the field while helping to pad fantasy managers' three-point, free-throw, assist, and steal categories. He'll get a tough matchup on Wednesday against the Spurs, though they nearly allowed a double-double to him in their first meeting.
