Thunder Friday Nights: Giddey Scores 23, Thunder Rout Suns 128-103 Without Gilgeous-Alexander
Josh Giddey scored 23 points to help the Oklahoma City Thunder roll past the Phoenix Suns 128-103 on Friday night, despite All-Star guard Shai Gilgeous-Alexander sitting out with a bruised right thigh. Without Gilgeous-Alexander, the NBA's No. 3 scorer at 30.4 points per game, the Thunder still shot 56.3% and made 16 of 30 3-pointers. It was a critical game for the Thunder — they entered the night a half-game behind the Denver Nuggets in the race for the best record in the Western Conference.
