NBA Courtside: Tracy McGrady says Anthony Edwards is right there, if not better than SGA 👀 “I think Ant Man is right there with Shai. If not, better. He’s a on the ball lockdown defender. I think his competitive drive and spirit is different than everybody else’s. I think he has less talent on his roster than Shai”

The AT&T Dunk Bus tips off in Miami in partnership with the Miami HEAT. There will be a community day on January 30 and a Game Day activation on February 1 ahead of the Miami HEAT and Chicago Bulls game. “At its core, basketball is about community and connection,” said Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, 2025 KIA NBA MVP and 2025 NBA Champion. “The AT&T Dunk Bus is a great way to create meaningful moments for fans in different cities and keep that connection to the game strong.”

Justin Martinez: Final: Thunder 104, Pelicans 95 Chet Holmgren: 20 points, 14 rebounds and 5 blocks Shai Gilgeous-Alexander: 29 points and 6 rebounds Isaiah Joe: 17 points and 3 assists Jeremiah Fears and Lu Dort got into it after the buzzer, and both benches cleared. Fears had to be escorted into the tunnel by two Pelicans staff members. Crazy game, but OKC snaps a two-game skid and improves to 38-10 on the season.

Oh No He Didn't: SGA: "It felt like we had control of the game. We were getting good looks offensively. They had 103 points tonight. That usually does it for us. Just one of those nights"

Justin Martinez: Final: Raptors 103, Thunder 101 Shai Gilgeous-Alexander: 24 points and 6 assists Lu Dort: 19 points and 8 rebounds Kenrich Williams: 15 points and 5 rebounds OKC (37-10) will finish its three-game homestand when it hosts New Orleans on Tuesday.

Joel Lorenzi: SGA looked to b-line right to the locker room. Seemed pissed about the way things played out, particularly the end when he was pleading for a foul call earlier in the backcourt. OKC losing its versatility with every injury, and missing that O board is an awful way to lose.

Oh No He Didn't: Shai hopes Chet Holmgren is an all star: "His impact in winning is second to none. To me, it's a no-brainer"

Scott Agness: Jarace Walker (26pts) hit four big free throws late as the Pacers held on for a 117-114 win over the Thunder, who entered with an NBA-best 37-8 record. And just two home losses. Entertaining game. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander scored 47pts. Andrew Nembhard had 27-7-11, Pascal Siakam with 21. Next: Mon. at ATL

Milwaukee Bucks star Giannis Antetokounmpo acknowledged a tough start as Oklahoma City Thunder raced to a 38-18 first-quarter lead in Wednesday’s 122-102 loss at Fiserv Forum. “For some reason, we weren’t moving the ball as much. The ball was sticking a lot,” Giannis said. “They move the ball very, very, very well. Whenever we tried to double-team Shai, he was making the right pass to his teammate. We didn’t do our job. We played a lot of one-on-one, and with this team, you can’t play one-on-one.”

Justin Martinez: Asked Shai Gilgeous-Alexander about the standard he holds himself to and where it comes from: “I just know what I’m capable of. I know how hard I work. … No matter what the big picture or a big night looks like, I could’ve been better. And that’s just how I see it.”
