Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and the Thunder made light work of Denver on Sunday in a Game 7 DISMANTLING by the All-NBA guard.
Kevin Durant has new company in the Thunder record books, as Shai joins him as the only two OKC players to record 35+ points in a game 7. For Thunder fans’ sake, let’s just hope Shai doesn’t follow KD’s footsteps in other ways as well…
Shai wasn’t the only Thunder putting in work, as J-Dub finally bounced back (after shooting just 33.6% in games 1-6) with an efficient 24-point performance.

The defense also stepped up, with Caruso and the rest of the Thunder making it super hard on the Joker every time he touched the ball.
The Nuggets head back to Denver after a Jokic game that was well below his standards, especially for a game 7. Jamal Murray also had a rough showing in game 7 but had a decent series overall. Just don’t ask him to run your Instagram.
Ant and the T-Wolves will head south to Paycom Center TONIGHT.
Prepare for war.
