RecapShai Gilgeous-Alexander produced 31 points (9-of-20 FGs, 13-of-14 FTs), four rebounds, two assists and one steal in Wednesday’s loss to the Trail Blazers.
Gilgeous-Alexander has scored at least 30 points in six games this season. Unfortunately for him and the Thunder, the team’s lack of established scorers proved costly in both losses to the Trail Blazers. Five other Thunder players scored in double figures, with Isaiah Hartenstein’s 20 leading the way. The lack of creators who can take some of the pressure off of Gilgeous-Alexander was evident in both losses to the Trail Blazers. He’ll remain an elite fantasy option, but SGA’s ceiling may have taken a slight hit because a few of his teammates are injured.
