Thunder’s Shai Gilgeous-Alexander Sits Out Against Mavericks sportando.basketball/en/thunders-sh… - 3:19 AM

Brandon Rahbar @BrandonRahbar

This is impressive fight from OKC.

Down 20 at the half on the second night of a back to back without SGA or their bigs.

Open up with a 17-2 run.

65-60. - 10:18 PM

Eddie Sefko @ESefko

The Mavericks are dominating OKC, up 63-43 at halftime. The Thunder have fallen apart without their superstar guard and MVP candidate Shai Gilgeous-Alexander. They should have consulted the Mavericks for advice on how to handle such situations. - 9:49 PM

Brad Townsend @townbrad

Not sure the Thunder could make a better case for Shai Gilgeous-Alexander’s MVP candidacy than these last few minutes w/o him. - 9:46 PM

Eddie Sefko @ESefko

Jalen Williams is finding out the game is a lot tougher without Shai Gilgeous-Alexander on the floor. He has twice as many turnovers (4) as points (2) and is 0-of-3 from the field and 2-of-6 from the line. Mavs have a 9-2 run going to tie it at 31. - 9:19 PM

Eddie Sefko @ESefko

Mavericks go up 10-0. Thunder come back with nine consecutive points. Lots of key players missing -- Luka, SGA, Holmgren. Lively. - 8:56 PM
