Shai Gilgeous-Alexander is HYPE for this game, from hitting his own thigh after a made shot, that baseline spinning fall away J had him over at the OKC bench yelling. That is a leader understanding this game. – 8:19 PM

Nice drive and finish for Jabari Smith Jr. He has been better at that, even as his 3-point shooting as slumped. Shooting 51.9 % inside the 3-point line in his past 31 games played, up from
35.7 % his first 17 games played. – 8:16 PM
