Gilgeous-Alexander collected 30 points (12-18 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 5-5 FT), six rebounds, eight assists and one steal over 31 minutes during Thursday's 123-111 loss to the Timberwolves.

Gilgeous-Alexander put together a strong showing on the offensive end and has now scored 30 or more points 33 times in 47 appearances so far this season. However, he was unable to single-handedly keep his team in the game in the second half, as OKC entered the fourth quarter down by 16, and that deficit only grew down the stretch. Despite a third loss in four games for the Thunder, the reigning MVP continues to play at a high level and provide strong production across the board.
