Gallinari shoots the lights out against Miami:

We have become accustomed to Gallinari putting on remarkable offensive spectacles and playing against the Miami Heat on January 17th was no different.

Gallo went off for a game-high 27 points as he netted a whopping seven 3-pointers. He was the best Thunder player on the night and also recorded six rebounds, four assists, and a steal.

This scoring prowess is what got the Heat interested in trading for Gallo in February. Fortunately for OKC fans, the trade did not go ahead. I’m sure the Thunder can agree it is better having him on their side rather than on the opposition.

Despite the loss, Gallo provided hope throughout the match and took every chance, confidently shooting the ball and looking out for his teammates.

It was definitely a memorable performance and though a win would have added the icing on the cake to his stunning efforts, the loss didn’t take away from his contributions.
