Shai Gilgeous-Alexander reflects on ‘dark times' amid Thunder's NBA Finals return

The post Shai Gilgeous-Alexander reflects on 'dark times' amid Thunder's NBA Finals return appeared first on ClutchPoints. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander had to persevere through dark times before becoming the star player he is for the Oklahoma City Thunder. Advertisement Gilgeous-Alexander joined the Thunder in the second season of his NBA career, following a trade that saw him and multiple players go from the Los Angeles Clippers to Oklahoma City in exchange for Paul George. This had him adapt to a different situation, igniting the fire that allowed him to become one of the best players in the league. The star guard helped the Thunder reach the 2025 NBA Finals after winning 124-94 against the Minnesota Timberwolves in Game 5 of the Western Conference Finals, taking the series 4-1. He also won the West Finals MVP, as he got to reflect on his accomplishments with the team since he became a member in 2019. 'I just want to shout out these fans. They've been here since the couple years I got here. There's some really dark times in this arena, not fun times, and these fans have been by our side, through thick and thin, so we appreciate them, first and foremost. And then, of course, I want to thank my teammates. Without them, I'm nothing. Clear as day. I don't have 124 points by myself,' Gilgeous-Alexander said. What's next for Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, Timberwolves Alonzo Adams-Imagn Images Shai Gilgeous-Alexander was more than deserving of the West Finals MVP Award, dominating the Timberwolves throughout Game 5 and the series.

He shot 14-of-25 from the field, including 2-of-4 from beyond the arc, and 4-of-4 from the free-throw line. By the series' end, he produced 31.4 points, 8.2 assists, 5.2 rebounds, and 1.8 steals per game. Oklahoma City returns to the NBA Finals for the first time since 2012, their fifth overall. They now have the opportunity to win their first title since the franchise relocated from Seattle in 2008. As both the regular-season MVP and West Finals MVP, Gilgeous-Alexander will be ready for the challenge. The Thunder will prepare for Game 1 of the NBA Finals, where they will meet the East Finals winner between the New York Knicks and Indiana Pacers. The contest will take place on June 5 at 8:30 p.m. ET.

Angels Receive Mike Trout News Before Dodgers Game

Nearly two months into the season, the Los Angeles Angels are 17-25 and are the only team in the AL Central with a losing record. Furthermore, they own the third-worst record in the AL and are 4-6 in their last 10 games. Los Angeles has won just one series in the month of May, and they have won two consecutive games just two times since the beginning of April. The season is still young, and they have plenty of time to turn things around. However, they will have a difficult challenge immediately in front of them. Advertisement On Friday night, they will begin a three-game series against the reigning champion Los Angeles Dodgers. The Dodgers own the best record in the NL and won three of their last four games. Los Angeles Angels outfielder Mike Trout (27)Troy Taormina-Imagn Images Once the best player in the MLB, it seems that Trout's best days could be behind him as he has struggled to stay healthy over the past few seasons. The three-time MVP has appeared in over 100 games in just one season since 2020, and his season ended after just 29 games last year. Trout is currently rehabbing a bone bruise in his knee and has been out of action since April 30. According to Angels beat writer Jeff Fletcher, however, the Angels outfielder is progressing in his recovery. Advertisement "Mike Trout has begun hitting off a machine," Fletcher wrote on X. "He's also throwing and doing agility on the field. He's running on the Alter G at 75% of his weight." Though his recovery seems to be going well, there is still no concrete timetable for Trout's return from injury. Until there is more clarity, his status will be crucial to monitor.
