Oklahoma City Thunder: Box score and player stats
Oklahoma City Thunder game summary
Shai Gilgeous-Alexander carried the Oklahoma City Thunder with 32 points on 68.8% shooting, but it wasn’t enough to avoid the loss. He added 6 assists and hit 2 of his 4 shots from deep, but the offense lacked balance. The Thunder’s poor shooting from beyond the arc—just 27.5% on 40 attempts— made a comeback tough.
Chet Holmgren was one of the few bright spots, finishing with 19 points, 11 rebounds, and a block. Meanwhile, Jalen Williams struggled, going 3-for-16 from the field and missing all four of his threes. With limited help from the bench and too many fouls and turnovers, OKC couldn’t close the gap despite strong defensive energy.
