The Oklahoma City Thunder capped off a phenomenal year spearheaded by Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, here is his end-of-the-year report card.
The Oklahoma City Thunder capped off a brilliant 2023-24 campaign with a 57-25 record that saw the Bricktown boys win their first playoff series since 2016. Despite falling in six games to the eventual Western Conference Champion Dallas Mavericks in the second round, the Thunder season could be described as nothing short of a success.
It culminated in the max contract point guard being tabbed second in the MVP race marking back-to-back top-five finishes for the 25-year-old en route to averaging 30 points, five rebounds, six assists and 2.9 stocks per game. Gilgeous-Alexander also made progress as a playmaker partly due to his own gravity while also benefiting from improved shotmakers around him. His offensive synergy page is lit up like the Griswold's house on Christmas Eve.
While no one needs the 25-year-old to wipe dazzling passes across the court and survey the floor with eyes in the back of his head, simple and quicker pick-and-roll reads would go a long way in helping the superstar maximize the talent around him.
