Shai eats up the Wolves and OKC takes a 2-0 lead in the Western Finals
Another very clear victory for Oklahoma City Thunder against Minnesota Timberwolves with Gilgeous-Alexander performing at an MVP level
NBA series are very long, but at this moment it seems like there is no competition between Oklahoma City Thunder and the Minnesota Timberwolves, who were playing the Western Conference Finals for the second year in a row but seem lost. OKC won 118-103 to take a 2-0 lead in the series before heading to Minneapolis.
A special day as Shai Gilgeous-Alexander received the regular-season MVP trophy before the game and then proved on the court that he deserved it by crushing the Wolves with 38 points (13 free throws and 1 three-pointer). Jalen Williams scored 26, and Chet Holmgren added 22.
In Minnesota, it was a disaster. They only clicked somewhat with Mike Conley on the court, but the veteran guard isn't up for too much. Anthony Edwards finished with 32 points (12 of 26 field goals and 1 of 9 three-pointers, 7 free throws). Jaden McDaniels contributed 22 points, and Nick Alexander-Walker went up to 17. Julius Randle was terrible with 6 points. They will need to show a different face at home to have a chance.
This is an automatic translation. You can read the original news, Shai se come a los Wolves y OKC pone el 2-0 en las Finales del Oeste
