Shai Gilgeous-Alexander drops 36 points in shootout

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (G - OKC)

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander amassed 36 points (13-22 FG, 1-1 3P, 9-10 FT) to go along with five rebounds, seven assists, two blocks, and two steals over 36 minutes in a Thunder 137-132 loss to the Hawks on Wednesday.

Fantasy Impact
Per usual, Gilgeous-Alexander carried OKC on his back Wednesday, keeping them well within the game until the final minutes. The man is simply built different, showcased by his near 55% shooting throughout the month of January. SGA is now averaging nearly 36 points over his past three games and that will be more likely to continue than not against the Cavaliers on Friday.
