At 32.7 points per game, he leads the NBA in scoring. He also averages 11.5 rebounds, 6.1 assists, and 1.6 blocks. He shoots 61.4%, which, if maintained, would be a career best.
If the Bucks star keeps playing that way and the team keeps winning, there’s a good chance he’ll earn MVP a third time.
Shai Gilgeous-Alexander’s production is the loser. On Tuesday, OKC’s MVP contender shot 8 for 24 for 21 points, including 2 for 9 from three-point range.
The Bucks performed well, limiting Gilgeous-Alexander’s ability to dominate the game with their size. He just had two assists and four rebounds.
Gilgeous-Alexander said, “Given how I felt tonight, I still got to my shot, my spot, I just didn’t make anything.” “That kind of thing happens.”
