Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, Jalen Williams combine for 72 points as Thunder hold off Knicks

OKLAHOMA CITY -- Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and Jalen Williams each scored 36 points, and Williams hit a pair of clutch 3-pointers in the fourth quarter Wednesday night as the Oklahoma City Thunder held on to beat the New York Knicks 129-120.

Chet Holmgren added 22 points for Oklahoma City (20-9), which beat Western Conference-leading Minnesota on Tuesday night and was playing its third back-to-back this season.

"I thought we really got into our depth in the first half and we were able to keep the minutes under control and still have control of the game," said Thunder coach Mark Daigneault, whose team committed just four turnovers.
