Ball Don’t Lie @Balldontlie SGA would lead the NBA in scoring even if he only played 3 quarters a game 
1.SGA 2,097 points 2. SGA (minus 4th Q and OT) 1,767 points 3. Anthony Edwards 1,742 points 4. Nikola Jokic 1738 points
5. Jayson Tatum 1662 points pic.x.com/3QIoiVW6Yi – 6:36 PM
Sirius XM NBA @SiriusXMNBA “There should be an expectation where Shai Gilgeous-Alexander has to [win a title]”
@TermineRadio & @JumpShot8 believe SGA will start to receive criticism, like other stars, if OKC doesn’t win a title soon. pic.x.com/yBh7KDZuKU – 5:33 PM
Brown on SGA: “That boy good. I’m a big fan of his game … definitely a guy that you watch and you study to get better … if we end up playing them down the line.” – 11:05 PM
My goodness Shai. – 9:43 PM
Its a tad early but I would put Shai Gilgeous-Alexander back in this game at the timeout. Mark Daigneault might want to stress test this team more (and rightfully so, the W-L does not matter) but it will be interesting to see what happens. This game is just awesome. – 9:33 PM
What a gorgeous sequence. Derrick White gets the block on Holmgren, C’s get out in transition, Tatum was patient, c’s moved it, and White gets rewarded with a corner 3. 95-95 with 8:50 to go – 9:33 PM
Massive 4th quarter coming up. What a game this has been, back and forth and both teams only get better with additions of Kristaps Porzingis, Jalen Williams, Alex Caruso. A Finals matchup would be cinema. – 9:24 PM
Jayson Tatum is matching Shai Gilgeous Alexander. 29 points, 7 assists, 5 rebounds to SGA’s 26/5/3. the other guys are going to win this game – 9:21 PM

Chet Holmgren has been awesome, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander cans a triple to give him 21, and OKC has an impressive 77-68 point lead as Boston needs a timeout. Great fight and execution by OKC down two key guys on the road. – 9:02 PM
Tatum getting a look at SGA now. – 8:06 PM
Brandon Rahbar @BrandonRahbar Thunder up 9-0 early vs the Celtics. Dort 3 Dort drive SGA tip shot Wallace drive
Hot start for the undermanned Thunder vs the champs. – 7:47 PM
Joe Mazzulla says he has no update on Kristaps Porzingis and that Jayson Tatum is playing. Both were listed as questionable for tonight’s game against Oklahoma City, who won’t have Jalen Williams, who is out with a hip strain. – 5:49 PM
Aaron Rose @AaronBenRose The final month of the NBA season has arrived! It’s shaping up to be an interesting stretch run in both directions 
SGA leads the MVP race 
the Tankathon is well underway 
OKC looks like the team to beat! My latest for @BodogCA

Jalen Williams didn’t make the trip with the Thunder, per Mark Daigneault, who said he’s just back in OKC working out and that there isn’t a current timeline for his return. – 11:17 AM
More on this storyline
“It’s huge,” Gilgeous-Alexander said of the 118-112 win after putting up 34 points, 7 assists and 5 rebounds in 39 minutes. “Because [the Celtics have] done it, because they’ve done what we’re trying to do, the games against them are always going to be heightened. They’re always going to be a little bit more exciting. They, like I said, achieved what we are trying to accomplish, and there’s no better test in the NBA. “You play for late June, and the other team had won late June. So playing against them is always fun, always a really big challenge and something that we get to test ourselves against them. I guess we passed two tests so far.” -via ESPN / March 13, 2025
Brandon Rahbar: Updated OKC injury report vs Detroit: Jalen Williams (hip) is out. Chet Holmgren (rest) is out. Aaron Wiggins (illness) is questionable. Alex Caruso is available. There was an admin error on the initial injury report. I deleted my last tweet to avoid confusion. -via Twitter @BrandonRahbar / March 14, 2025
Tim Bontemps: Final: Thunder 118, Celtics 112 Shai Gilgeous-Alexander has 34-5-7 and Chet Holmgren had 23 and 15 to lead the Thunder past the Celtics, who shot 5-for-26 from 3 in the second half. Jayson Tatum had 33-8-8 for Boston. -via x.com / March 12, 2025
