Shai Gilgeous-Alexander may be one of the best players in the association as he continues to lead the nascent Oklahoma City Thunder to greater and greater heights, but he is not everyone’s cup of coffee — MVP-level play be damned. Gilgeous-Alexander has built a reputation for himself as a free-throw merchant, and his posts on Instagram weren’t exactly made with the intention of establishing himself as a bigger fan favorite.

At this point, barring an unforeseen major turnaround for the Warriors, they are close to impossible to win the 2025 NBA championship. They simply do not have the two-way talent and firepower around Stephen Curry that they once did, and they don’t exactly have the sense of urgency to overhaul the roster.

But now, the Warriors’ decline is coinciding with the Thunder’s ascent, with Shai Gilgeous-Alexander positioning himself as a believable candidate to win the MVP award. And with Curry already having plenty of time in the spotlight, Gilgeous-Alexander can do what
