What would the BBNBA be without its high-flying, scoring-crazy guards? It wouldn’t be nearly as interesting that’s for sure. On Wednesday night, the solid play from Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and De’Aaron Fox led the Oklahoma City Thunder and Sacramento Kings, respectively, to wins at home.
Two nights removed from his buzzer-beater that sent Portland home, SGA delivered yet again. The Thunder were back at home playing Portland for the second time in three nights and Gilgeous-Alexander gave the Trail Blazers nightmares yet again. This time it was a crisp 27 points, six rebounds, and three assists that cemented OKC’s 101-98 win over the Trail Blazers.
