Shai's Last Shot Falls Short
Description
Shai Gilgeous-Alexander dropped a career-high 35 points in Game 7, but the Oklahoma City Thunder fell short against the Spurs, ending their playoff run. Despite Shai outscoring Victor Wembanyama—a trend that usually signaled Thunder wins—the team collapsed without key contributions from starters, especially Chet Holmgren, who scored just four points and took no shots in the second half. Former player Gilbert Arenas sparked controversy by suggesting Shai return expensive gifts to teammates, citing underwhelming performances. With a loaded draft haul and uncertain future, the Thunder now face tough questions: rebuild or trade? Shai remains confident in GM decisions, but the playoff exit leaves fans wondering what’s next.
