Shai Gilgeous-Alexander gave the Thunder an efficient 19 points (6-of-11 FG, 4-of-4 FT), three rebounds, four assists, two steals and three triples in Wednesday's elimination loss to the Rockets.
Gilgeous-Alexander played 40 minutes in his first Game 7 and put on an efficient performance. While you might expect to see more out of the Thunder's rising star and second-option, this sort of line fits his profile for the season. SGA had some very impressive performances this season but just as often his production could be farly anemic. He finished just outside the top-50 this year and certainly deserves the label of "rising star".
