OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) — Jaylin Williams scored a career-high 19 points and had 17 rebounds and 11 assists for his second career triple-double, and the Oklahoma City Thunder cruised past the injury-depleted Philadelphia 76ers 133-100 on Wednesday night with Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and three other starters sidelined.

Gilgeous-Alexander, the NBA's top scorer at 33.0 points per game and a leading MVP candidate, sat out for rest, while Lu Dort, Isaiah Hartenstein and Jalen Williams got the night off because of injuries.
