If people thought the Oklahoma City Thunder were too reliant on Shai Gilgeous-Alexander for their offensive production last season, wait until they get a load of this 2025-26 approach.
While they may only be two games into the new campaign, OKC has been riding its superstar guard extremely hard to provide any semblance of consistent scoring production.
His usage rate is up roughly five percentage points compared to last season at 38.8 (second to only Giannis Antetokounmpo's 45.3), while his total minutes logged pace all players to this point at 93, averaging out to 46.3 a night.
