Shai Gilgeous-Alexander tallied 38 points (13-of-21 FGs, 7-of-10 FTs), three rebounds, four assists, one steal and five three-pointers in Tuesday's win over the Warriors.While the Warriors used increased defensive intensity and various looks to get back into Tuesday's game, their inability to slow down the reigning MVP was the difference. After Pat Spencer hit a shot with 4:54 remaining to give the Warriors a one-point lead, Gilgeous-Alexander and the Thunder went on an 8-0 run to take the lead for good, with the MVP responsible for five of those points.
