Shaivonte Aician Gilgeous-Alexander (born July 12, 1998) is a Canadian professional basketball player for the Oklahoma City Thunder of the National Basketball Association (NBA). He played college basketball for the Kentucky Wildcats. Gilgeous-Alexander was selected in the first round of the 2018 NBA draft by the Charlotte Hornets with the 11th overall pick, and was traded to the Los Angeles Clippers that same night. He was named to the NBA All-Rookie Second Team in his lone season with the Clippers before being traded to Oklahoma City along with Danilo Gallinari and multiple first round picks in a blockbuster deal for Paul George.

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander continues to write his name into the NBA record books. The reigning MVP scored 26 points in OKC’s 123-115 win vs. Portland, marking his 93rd straight game with 20+ points — the second-longest streak in NBA history. The Oklahoma City Thunder are rolling with a 20-1 record in the Western Conference, putting themselves on pace for what might become the best regular-season record the NBA has ever seen. With SGA playing at this level and OKC firing on all cylinders, the question is simple: Can he pass Wilt?
