In a separate matchup, the Oklahoma City Thunder showcased their elite potential with a decisive win over the Dallas Mavericks. Led by Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (SGA), the Thunder sent shockwaves through the league as they proved they could contend with the best. SGA’s performance, including five three-pointers, was integral to the Thunder claiming a comfortable 118-104 victory.
Gilgeous-Alexander attributed the team’s success to their defensive strategies, which stifled Dallas’ star players and allowed OKC to control the pace of the game.
