Shai Gilgeous-Alexander stepped back, eluding Spurs forward LaMarcus Aldridge, and swished a 3-pointer. It was nearly a double stepback as Gilgeous-Alexander rapidly shuffled his feet behind the arc. The second-year guard is still adding new tricks to his game, and all of them were on display Thursday night.

The Thunder beat the Spurs 109-103, notching its first regular season win in San Antonio since Christmas Day 2014.
