Who is Thunder star Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (SGA)?
For anyone competing in Jeopardy! In the future, they will want to know who Gilgeous-Alexander is. At only 27 years old, Sga is a four-time All-Star and three-time All-NBA First Team player.
2025 was a breakout year for Gilgeous-Alexander. He was named NBA MVP, and the Thunder won the NBA Finals (Sga was named MVP of the series).
He played 76 games during the 2024–25 season. Gilgeous-Alexander averaged 32.7 points (career-high), five rebounds and 6.4 assists per game.
Through 49 games in the 2025–26 season, Gilgeous-Alexander is averaging 31.8 points, 4.4 rebounds and 6.4 assists per game. Currently, he is suffering from an injury which has caused him to miss several matches.
Even without SGA, the Thunder are rolling. They are 44–14 and in first place in the Northwest Division. The Thunder are also in first place in the Western Conference. They are coming off an eight-point win over the Cleveland Cavaliers and will next play against the Toronto Raptors.
SGA was selected by the Charlotte Hornets with the 11th pick in the 2018 NBA draft out of Kentucky. However, he never played for the Hornets, as he was traded to the Los Angeles Clippers on draft night. After one season with the Clippers, he was traded to the Thunder. He remained with them for the next seven seasons.
