In an inverse of Game 1, the Thunder outplayed the Nuggets in a high pressure, high stakes closing stretch of Game 4 to take command of the series. Once more, Nikola Jokic went for 40+ and helped Denver dominate the boards, but OKC held his supporting cast in check. Despite some early struggles cracking Denver's defensive schemes, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander returned to form over the course of the game, scoring a familiar 31 points and nailing a dagger with familiar confidence to put the Nuggets to bed.
Jokic went 5-7 from three, while his teammates went 8-39.
