Chet Holmgren

OKC Power Forward #7

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

Chet Holmgren tallied 22 points (8-of-17 FGs, 5-of-6 FTs), four rebounds, two assists and one three-pointer in Thursday’s Game 2 win over the Timberwolves.

For the first time since Game 3 of Oklahoma City’s first-round series against the Grizzlies, Holmgren surpassed the 20-point mark. While the rebounds were limited and he did not record any defensive stats, the 7-foot-1 forward gave Oklahoma City excellent minutes on Thursday. Thus far, Holmgren has outplayed Minnesota forward Julius Randle, which is one reason Oklahoma City heads to Minnesota with a two-game-to-none lead. Game 3 is on Saturday night.
Jalen Williams

OKC Small Forward #8

Jalen Williams accumulated 26 points (12-of-20 FGs, 0-of-1 FTs), 10 rebounds, five assists, one steal and two three-pointers in Thursday’s Game 2 win over the Timberwolves.

Having struggled for most of Oklahoma City’s second-round series against the Nuggets, Williams has played well through the first two games of the Western Conference Finals. After making history in Game 1 by becoming the youngest player to drop at least 15 points, five assists, five steals and no turnovers in a playoff game, J-Dub had a better night offensively and recorded a double-double. Oklahoma City hopes Williams can take this play on the road, as they visit Minnesota for Game 3 on Saturday.
Shai Gilgeous-Alexander

OKC Point Guard #2

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander shot 12-of-21 from the field and 13-of-15 from the foul line in Thursday’s Game 2 win over the Timberwolves, scoring 38 points with three rebounds, eight assists, three steals and one three-pointer.

One day after being named the NBA’s Most Valuable Player, Gilgeous-Alexander showed on Thursday why he was a deserving recipient of the award. Not only did he shoot over 50 percent from the field, but SGA attempted 15 free throws. One of the NBA’s best at getting to the foul line, Gilgeous-Alexander attempted 29 free throws in the first two games of the Western Conference Finals, making 24. Simply put, if Minnesota is to have any chance of getting back into the series, they’ll need to do a far better job of defending SGA without fouling. Game 3 is on Saturday night.
Shai Gilgeous-Alexander

OKC Point Guard #2

ESPN’s Shams Charania reports that Shai Gilgeous-Alexander has been named the 2024-25 NBA MVP.

In a two-man race for the NBA’s most prestigious regular season award, SGA emerged victorious behind averages of 32.7 points, 5.0 rebounds, 6.4 assists, 1.7 steals, 1.0 block and 2.1 triples. He shot 51.9 percent from the floor, 89.8 percent from the charity stripe and 37.5 percent from beyond the arc. Gilgeous-Alexander powered Oklahoma City to the NBA’s best record with a franchise-high 68 wins and the top seed in the Western Conference. SGA finished as fantasy’s third ranked player on a per-game basis behind only Nikola Jokic and Victor Wembanyama.
Jalen Williams

OKC Small Forward #8

Jalen Williams had 19 points (7-of-18 FGs), eight rebounds, five assists, five steals and one three-pointer in Game 1 against the Timberwolves on Tuesday.

Williams, 24, became the youngest player in NBA history with at least 15 points, five assists, five steals and zero turnovers in a playoff game. Much like Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, he struggled in the first half but was a major factor in the Thunder blowing out the Timberwolves in the second half. While Williams has struggled with inconsistency in these playoffs, when he turns it on, the Thunder are tough to beat.
Shai Gilgeous-Alexander

OKC Point Guard #2

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander had 31 points (10-of-27 FGs), five rebounds, nine assists and three steals in the Thunder’s 114-88 victory over the Timberwolves in Game 1 on Tuesday.

Gilgeous-Alexander struggled in the first half, but the Thunder only trailed by four points. In the second half, he erupted with 20 points on 14 shots, four rebounds and five assists. The Thunder won the third quarter by 14 and the fourth quarter by 16. The overwhelming favorite for this year’s MVP award was electric in the second half as the Thunder put Game 1 away at home. Oklahoma City is now three wins away from reaching the NBA Finals with Game 2 on Thursday.
Alex Caruso

OKC Shooting Guard #9

Alex Caruso tallied 11 points (5-of-7 FTs), three assists, three steals and one three-pointer in 26 minutes in Sunday’s Game 7 win over the Nuggets.

Caruso was one of the “game changers” in Game 7, as the decision to have him defend Nikola Jokic shifted momentum in Oklahoma City’s favor. The veteran guard did not record any rebounds, but he made the most of his scoring opportunities and was responsible for three steals. How the Thunder use Caruso in the Western Conference Finals remains to be seen, but he’ll have a crucial role off the bench. The Thunder host Minnesota in Game 1 on Tuesday.
Chet Holmgren

OKC Power Forward #7

Chet Holmgren finished Sunday’s Game 7 win over the Nuggets with 13 points (4-of-9 FGs, 5-of-6 FTs), 11 rebounds, one assist, one steal and one blocked shot in 28 minutes.

Holmgren hit double digits in rebounds in five games this series, recording four double-doubles. While he missed all three of his three-point attempts in Game 7, the second-year forward/center filled the stat sheet otherwise. Holmgren will face a far different defensive challenge in the Western Conference Finals, as Minnesota’s Julius Randle is a more skilled offensive talent than Denver’s Aaron Gordon. Game 1 of the series is on Tuesday night.
Jalen Williams

OKC Small Forward #8

Jalen Williams amassed 24 points (10-of-17 FGs, 2-of-3 FTs), five rebounds, seven assists, one steal and two three-pointers in 33 minutes in Sunday’s Game 7 win over the Nuggets.

After playing poorly in Oklahoma City’s Game 6 defeat on Thursday, Williams shouldered the blame for the result. He struggled in this series, so it had to feel great to play as well as he did on Sunday. Williams shot over 50 percent from the field and finished one blocked shot shy of a complete stat line. He’ll need to be more consistent in the Western Conference Finals if the Thunder are to advance past the Timberwolves, who visit Oklahoma City for Game 1 on Tuesday.
Shai Gilgeous-Alexander

OKC Point Guard #2

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander shot 12-of-19 from the field and 8-of-9 from the foul line in Sunday’s Game 7 victory over the Nuggets, scoring 35 points with three rebounds, four assists, three steals, one block and three three-pointers in 36 minutes.

After scoring 32 points in Game 6, Gilgeous-Alexander was three better in Sunday’s decisive Game 7. Scoring efficiently, the Thunder star leads the league with seven games of 30 points or more in these playoffs. Gilgeous-Alexander will look to add to his tally when the Thunder host the Timberwolves in Game 1 of the Western Conference Finals on Tuesday.
