Shai Gilgeous-Alexander Stats

Oklahoma City Thunder point guard Shai Gilgeous-Alexander just wrapped up his third year with the franchise, the last two of which have seen the team combine for 46 regular-season wins. Despite that, Gilgeous-Alexander, the face of the team, remains committed, saying of his relationship with head coach Mark Daigneault and general manager Sam Presti, "Every time we talk, I get a little bit more excited I'm excited for the future," per Joe Mussatto of The Oklahoman. The 23-year-old is coming off having set a career high in scoring (24.5 PPG) this year despite being setback by injuries once again. But he did attempt 18.8 shots on a nightly basis, an indication that his role as the primary scoring option with OKC is not going to change heading into 2022-23, further elevating his appeal as the Thunder work toward playoff contention again.

The Oklahoma City Thunder have ruled out point guard Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (ankle) for Wednesday's game against the Orlando Magic. According to the injury report, he is dealing with right ankle soreness. However, the 20-52 Thunder are likely just trying to weaken their arsenal against the 20-53 Magic to help their tanking process. With SGA sidelined, we should see a lot of offense fall on the shoulders of rookie Tre Mann, who scored a career-high 35 points on Monday. He's a must-start player for the game. Aleksej Pokusevski should see a usage boost as well. He's startable if you can risk a potentially devastating field goal percentage.
