Shai Gilgeous-Alexander's foul trouble gave Nuggets hope in Thunder's Game 6 loss

Battling with Nikola Jokic, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander's fourth foul started a butterfly effect that resulted in a Game 7 between the Oklahoma City Thunder and Denver Nuggets.

Gilgeous-Alexander did enough to secure a win with an efficient 32 points. But the rest of his teammates' failure to show up resulted in a 119-107 Game 6 loss to the Nuggets in the Round 2 playoff series.

Gilgeous-Alexander picked up his fourth foul as he fought for positioning against Jokic. Gulp. That forced OKC to check him out for the final 89 seconds of the first half.
