Gilgeous-Alexander Scores 51 as Thunder Secure 50th Win of the Season

Posted : 04 March 2025

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander delivered a standout performance, scoring 51 points to lead the Oklahoma City Thunder to a 137-128 victory over the Houston Rockets, marking their 50th win of the season.

 

The 26-year-old guard, who has now recorded four 50-point games since January, was flawless from the free-throw line, making all 10 attempts while also contributing seven assists.

 

Despite his individual milestone, Gilgeous-Alexander emphasized his focus on team success, stating that winning is what makes the game enjoyable, regardless of his personal scoring achievements.

 

With this victory, the Thunder solidified their position at the top of the Western Conference, having won 13 of their last 15 games to reach an impressive 50-11 record. No other team in the division has yet reached 40 wins, further underscoring Oklahoma City's dominance this season.

 

Their consistency has been driven by a combination of strong team play and Gilgeous-Alexander’s leadership, as he continues to energize the squad with his aggressive approach and playmaking ability.

 

Meanwhile, the Dallas Mavericks suffered a significant setback in their 122-98 loss to the Sacramento Kings, as Kyrie Irving exited the game in the first quarter due to a knee injury sustained on a drive to the basket.

 

The Mavericks' struggles worsened when Jaden Hardy left in the third quarter with a sprained ankle, adding to their growing list of injuries. Dallas had already lost Anthony Davis to a groin injury following his debut after a three-way trade that saw Luka Dončić move to the Los Angeles Lakers.

 

 The Kings, led by Zach LaVine’s 22 points and DeMar DeRozan’s 20, secured their fourth consecutive victory.
