OKC Thunder: 3 takeaways feature dynamic duo shining bright in New York
No. 2) SGA moving mountains
There are a million reasons why the name Shai Gilgeous-Alexander is going to be heard for a very long time and echoed through halls, workplaces, homes, and arenas. He’s a star and arguably a bonafide superstar in the making.
Like many people, I cannot wait to see SGA become an All-Star and love seeing him get the recognition he deserves.
In a game where Diallo was on fire, SGA was sublime in his own way. After a slow start, he came back to record 25 points, 10 rebounds, and seven assists shooting 64 percent from the field. In the 3-point shooting department, he could not miss making a trio of treys.
The Canadian maestro dominated in almost every category, also adding a block to his overflowing stat sheet.
A couple of things suggested by both the media and fans for improvement from the Thunder leader is his consistent distribution and more accurate shooting from range. Playing against the Knicks, he proved that he can excel at this.
