Today, the NBA regular season continues with the Oklahoma City Thunder coming on the road to challenge the Indiana Pacers. The attention of this game is not very high, mainly because both teams are not strong teams, and there is a lack of superstars in the team.
But the game was played so intensely that it even went through an extra time. In the end, the Thunder defeated the Pacers 129-125 and won a valuable victory. In this game, the best player is the Thunder's star Alexander.
In the early days, Alexander was drafted by the Los Angeles Clippers and started his NBA career. But soon, Alexander was sent to the Thunder in a deal about Paul George. In the Thunder team that began to rebuild, Alexander gradually became the star of the house and was the main scorer on the outside.
In this game, Alexander scored 36 points, with eight rebounds and five assists, making it 9 of 12 free throws on the free throw line. It has to be said that Alexander was a point that the Pacers could not solve, and eventually lost to this player.
In fact, Alexander has averaged 23.2 points, 4.7 rebounds and 5.5 assists per game this season, which is remarkable. If the Thunder had a better record, it wouldn't be impossible for Alexander to make the All-Star Regular Game lineup.
A while ago, Alexander was absent due to injury, and rookie defender Gidy performed brilliantly, winning three double-doubles in a row and becoming a very concerned new star. But when Alexander returns from injury, everyone will find out that in fact, the thunder's star has not been replaced, or the tall scorer.
However, if he really wants to become a star player and gain greater exposure, Alexander may still have to leave the Thunder.
