Thunder's Gilgeous-Alexander hungry to cap MVP season with NBA crown

Oklahoma City superstar Shai Gilgeous-Alexander has piled up the individual accolades in leading the Thunder to the NBA Finals, but the Canadian guard says a title triumph against the Indiana Pacers is the prize that matters. "I don't play for the individual stuff, I don't play for anything else besides winning I never have in my whole life," Gilgeous-Alexander said Wednesday, a day before the Thunder host the Pacers in game one of the best-of-seven championship series. From youth basketball in Canada through university basketball in the United States, Gilgeous-Alexander said, his focus has been on winning titles. "Now I'm 26, I want to win the NBA championship," he said. "It's always about winning for me." With that goal in his sights, Gilgeous-Alexander delivered a spectacular season that saw him supplant Denver Nuggets star Nikola Jokic as the NBA Most Valuable Player. "SGA" averaged 32.7 points, 6.4 assists, 5.0 rebounds. 1.7 steals and 1.0 blocked shots per game in leading the Thunder to an NBA-best 68 regular-season wins. He became the first player to lead the league in games with at least 20 points , 30 points , 40 points and 50 points in a season since James Harden in 2018-19. Named MVP of the Western Conference finals after the Thunder dispatched the Minnesota Timberwolves in five games, Gilgeous-Alexander could become the first league scoring champion since Shaquille O'Neal in 2000 to win the NBA title in the same season. Gilgeous-Alexander said it had been "a long week to wait" since polishing off Anthony Edwards and the Timberwolves which followed a seven-game victory over Jokic and the Nuggets in the conference semi-finals. He acknowledged after the conference semis that he'd been nervous in the run-up to game seven but that experience has only helped him in the build-up to the Finals. "As these playoffs go on, you get better in controlling the situations, controlling your emotions. You understand what's coming," he said. "I just figured out how to navigate through all the emotions and the nerves and the waiting process, which is just plugging into my loved ones, try not to think about it so much, stress about it so much just enjoy life and stay in the moment." In addition to not looking too far forward, Gilgeous-Alexander said he is also not yet looking back on what has been an historic season for the Thunder. "I've been so focused on just game one," he said. "Trying to be the best version of myself for this group and trying to make sure that we're clicking on all cylinders on the biggest stage of our careers has been on the forefront of my mind and all I do worry about when I worry about basketball." bb/rcw

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander's calm in the chaos is the MVP force powering Oklahoma City Thunder's NBA Finals run

Just a few weeks ago, it was tough to picture the Oklahoma City Thunder standing here, Finals-bound and fearless. Their path looked shaky, one bad shooting night or a monster game from an opposing MVP away from falling apart. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now But with Shai Gilgeous-Alexander guiding the way, all that uncertainty has faded. The newly crowned MVP didn't just lead the Oklahoma City Thunder through a brutal playoff stretch—he grew with every step, turning pressure into fuel. Now with the red-hot Indiana Pacers waiting, his calm presence might be the Thunder's biggest advantage yet. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander's rise from Game 7 jitters to NBA Finals poise fuels Oklahoma City Thunder's championship chase The pressure peaked weeks ago in , where the Thunder faced elimination in a high-stakes Game 7 against and the Nuggets. The defending champions had just delivered a 12-point gut punch in Game 6, and the was staring down a daunting challenge. 'I was nervous to be honest,' admitted. Speaking during the postgame presser following OKC's stunning 32-point victory over the Nuggets, the MVP reflected on what was at stake. 'Just knowing what's on the line. We've worked so hard in the whole 82-game season, we've all worked so hard in the summer, to know if you don't bring your A-game it could all be over with and all for nothing.' The nerves were real, but so was the response. Image via X From that moment forward, Gilgeous-Alexander and the Thunder found their rhythm. In the Western Conference Finals against the Minnesota Timberwolves, OKC came out swinging. Dominant wins in Games 1 and 2 at home set the tone, and even a lopsided Game 3 loss didn't throw them off course. The Thunder regrouped quickly and closed out the series with authority. Fast forward to Wednesday's NBA Finals media day, and Gilgeous-Alexander spoke from a place of calm clarity. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now 'Yeah, I just figured out how to navigate through all the emotions and the nerves and the waiting process,' he said. 'Which is just plugging into my loved ones, try not to think about it so much, stress about it so much, just enjoy life and stay in the moment.' That emotional grounding could be critical as Oklahoma City faces arguably its toughest matchup yet. The Indiana Pacers, who've stunned the league with their offensive firepower, present a stylistic challenge unlike any the Thunder have seen so far. But Gilgeous-Alexander sounds ready. 'When these Playoffs go on, you get better in controlling the situations, controlling your emotions,' he said. 'You understand what's coming.' Also Read: When the Thunder take the floor in the NBA Finals, it won't just be about talent or tactics. It'll be about composure. It'll be about a team that grew stronger under pressure, led by a superstar who found peace in the chaos. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander may have started this playoff run with nerves, but he enters the Finals as a master of the moment.

NBA working on plan for US-vs.-world format at All-Star Game next season, AP source says

OKLAHOMA CITY — The NBA is working on a plan to turn next season's All-Star Game into a U.S.-vs.-world competition, a person with knowledge of the situation said Wednesday. It remains unclear how the format will work, said the person, who spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because the league has not made any final determinations. Speaking to Fox Sports 1 earlier Wednesday, NBA Commissioner Adam Silver — who has talked about such a game on multiple occasions — was asked if U.S. vs. the world is possible. 'Yes,' Silver said. Silver addressed the idea on March 27 as well at the league's most recent board of governors meeting, when he revealed that the NBA was scrapping the All-Star mini-tournament format that was used this season. At that time, the reported that the 2026 game — to be played Feb. 15 in Inglewood, California, just past the midpoint of the Milan-Cortina Winter Olympics — will be moved from its traditional prime-time Sunday night slot to one that starts on Sunday afternoon. That's happening because the game will be aired on NBC under the terms of the new 11-year media rights deals that kick in next season. NBC is also the Olympic broadcaster in the U.S. So, NBC could show Olympic events in the morning and early afternoon, then the All-Star Game, then have prime-time Olympic programming. The move comes on the heels of a popular tournament, the 4 Nations Face-off, that essentially took the place of the NHL All-Star Game this year, as well as strong competition at the Paris Olympics, where the Americans won a fifth consecutive gold medal by rallying past Nikola Jokic and Serbia in the semifinals, then topping host France and Victor Wembanyama in the title game — behind a barrage of late 3-pointers from Stephen Curry. 'What better time to feature some form of USA against the world?' Silver said on FS1. 'I'm not exactly sure what the format will be yet. I obviously paid a lot of attention to what the NHL did, which was a huge success. ... But also, going back, last summer, our Olympic competition was a huge success.' There is one big challenge regarding any U.S.-vs.-world format. About 70% of NBA players are American, while 30% are international, so it would in theory be easier for an international player to make the All-Star team — if the rosters are the same size. International players, when asked at this year's All-Star Game if they would want a U.S.-vs.-world matchup, sounded enthusiastic. 'I would love to. My opinion is that it's more purposeful,' Wembanyama said back in February. 'There's more pride in it. More stakes.' Added Milwaukee's Giannis Antetokounmpo, who's from Greece: 'I would love that. Oh, I would love that. I think that would be the most interesting and most exciting format. I would love that. For sure, I'd take pride in that. I always compete, but I think that will give me a little bit more extra juice to compete.' The latest format for the All-Star Game — a four-team, three-game mini-tournament in San Francisco with the first team to 40 points winning each — was a miss. It came after years of the league asking players for a more competitive game. The 211-186 final score at Indianapolis in 2024 was the last straw, and the league — for one year, anyway — thought the tournament was the answer. NBA: /hub/NBA
