Shai Gilgeous-Alexander Finishes With 17 Points in Preseason Finale

Oklahoma City Thunder star guard Shai Gilgeous-Alexander recorded 17 points in Thursday's 116-89 preseason loss to the Rockets. He shot 5-for-12 from the field, 2-for-5 on three-pointers, and a perfect 5-for-5 from the free-throw line, chipping in one rebound, three assists, and a block across 26 minutes. While his scoring efficiency and playmaking impact were slightly subdued, Gilgeous-Alexander remains an elite fantasy option as the regular season approaches.
