Show Notes

In a thrilling Western Conference semifinal rematch, the Oklahoma City Thunder outlasted the Denver Nuggets 127-121 in overtime. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander led the charge with 36 points, 9 assists, and 3 blocks, sparking a 16-point comeback. Despite Gilgeous-Alexanders impressive performance, he sat out the extra period due to a minutes limit. The Thunder showcased their depth and resilience, with Chet Holmgren grabbing a career-high 21 rebounds and Jared McCain adding 14 points. Tensions rose late in the game when Lu Dort was ejected for a flagrant two foul on Nikola Jokic, who still managed a triple-double with 23 points, 17 rebounds, and 14 assists. The Thunders gritty performance proved they could compete at a high level despite the absence of their star player.
