BEST WIN OF THE SEASON! Shai Gilgeous-Alexander Goes For 52 And The Warriors Still Beat Thunder!

Locked On Warriors – Daily Podcast On The Golden State Warriors

The Golden State Warriors pulled off their most impressive victory of the season, defeating the Western Conference-leading Oklahoma City Thunder 116-109. This win came despite missing two of Golden State's top four players, and overcoming a 52-point effort from Shai Gilgeous-Alexander.

Andrew Wiggins led the charge with 27 points, shooting an efficient 10-of-17 from the field and 5-of-8 from beyond the arc. Steph Curry, despite a slow start, came alive in the second half to finish with 21 points. Kevon Looney tied his career-high with 18 points, while Gary Payton II contributed 15 points and provided crucial defensive stops.

The game was a rollercoaster, with the Thunder threatening to take control multiple times. However, our team's grit and determination shone through, especially in the closing minutes. Curry and Wiggins hit clutch three-pointers, and Payton sealed the deal with an emphatic dunk.

Secret Sauce: 30 Assists

One key factor in our victory was our ball movement. We reached the magic number of 30 assists, which has historically been a strong indicator of success for our team. This "secret sauce" has been a cornerstone of our dynastic run, emphasizing the importance of unselfish play and team basketball.

This win serves as a reminder of what we're capable of when we play cohesively. It's a morale booster that could potentially buy us some time as we work towards getting our full roster healthy.
