Shai Gilgeous-Alexander

There really can be no other NBA player of the week this week than SGA. The historic win for OKC Thunder is their first championship title and SGA becomes one of the elite club of players who can say he won regular season MVP, Finals MVP, and scoring champion all in the same season. 

 

OKC beat the Pacers 101-93 in the game 7 showdown on Sunday evening - a closer game than any of us could have predicted following the early exit of Pacers' key player, Tyrese Haliburton. SGA stood out scoring 29 points, 12 assists and 5 rebounds in the game. 

 

In an emotional interview after the game, he said: "This isn't just a win for me. This is a win for my family. This is a win for my friends. This is a win for everybody that was in my corner growing up. This is a win for the fans, the best fans in the world."
