Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and the OKC Thunder pulled off a gutsy come-from-behind win on Friday, defeating the New York Knicks 117-107 at home. While SGA delivered another dominant performance, he gave credit to his teammates in the postgame interview.
Speaking to NBA TV’s Dennis Scott after the game, the MVP candidate — who played through a bloody lip after being elbowed — praised his squad’s collective effort.
“They made big plays all night. We're a roster full of 15 men, 15 professionals, 15 really skilled basketball players. And that's what we saw tonight: Guys are ready for the moment That's what happens,” Gilgeous-Alexander said.
