The Thunder has its annual Blue and White Scrimmage at its practice facility in Edmond on Sunday. Here are five takeaways:
SGA stands out Gilgeous-Alexander couldn’t have handled it better, finishing with a game-high 21 points. He controlled the Blue offense with hesitation dribbles and on-balance drives despite his slender frame and some tough defense, while also drawing fouls and getting to the free throw line at will against any defender.
Unlike other Blue and White Scrimmages, the Thunder never had players swap teams on Sunday. So when Shai Gilgeous-Alexander was put on the Blue team opposite Chris Paul and Dennis Schroder, he was in for a heavy work load.
