SGA, Williams power OKC to second round
-
Shai Gilgeous-Alexander scored 38 points and the Oklahoma City Thunder advanced to the Western Conference semifinals by beating the Memphis Grizzlies 117-115 on Saturday, April 26, to complete a four-game sweep.
Jalen Williams added 23 points for the top-seeded Thunder, who led the NBA with a 68-14 record this season and became the first team to reach the second round. They will await the fourth-seeded Denver Nuggets or No. 5 Los Angeles Clippers in the next round.
"I didn't feel like my mindset was any different," Gilgeous-Alexander said. “Every night I step on the floor to be the best version of myself. I hadn't been in the past (games), but tonight I was pretty close to it. I think because I kept the same mindset, it allowed me to just play free.”
