Breaking: Oklahoma City Thunder's Shai Gilgeous-Alexander has won his second consecutive NBA Most Valuable Player award, becoming the 14th player in league history to win back-to-back MVPs, multiple sources tell ESPN.
“That’s the nuclear outcome here… that’s when I think this team starts to really figure into some all-time conversations.” @Carsobi breaks down the X-Factor that will determine if OKC goes down as one of the greatest teams ever
Shai Gilgeous-Alexander has won his last 10 regular-season matchups against former MVPs. He has outscored the former MVP in all 10.
The 10 straight matchups against former MVPs winning the game and outscoring the former MVP is the longest streak by any player in NBA history.
Any team that wants to trade for Giannis should have a real shot at the NBA title. And that’s where OKC’s total dominance factors into the equation.

Just in: Thunder All-NBA guard Jalen Williams is off the injury report and will make his season debut against the Phoenix Suns on Friday night in OKC, multiple sources tell ESPN. Williams recovered from wrist surgery after playing through a torn ligament in the 2025 title run.
The Oklahoma City Thunder are a winning machine. And they aren't going away anytime soon.
For @spotrac, I looked at how the Thunder built their juggernaut and why they're set up for sustained success in a system designed to promote parity.

@noahoxnr I would rather them lean too into it rather that diminish it. Make it a yearly game in arrowhead and bring out all the combines possible. Let John Deere sponsor it! College football is supposed to be fun and random (especially when that’s the Big 12s redeeming quality rn)
