The Oklahoma City Thunder have seen Shai Gilgeous-Alexander put together one of the most impressive years of any NBA player in the league’s history on and off the court. <\/p>\n
While averaging an NBA best 32.7 points, 5.0 rebounds, 6.4 assists and 2.7 stocks per game while shooting 51% from the floor, 37% from the 3-point line and 89% at the charity stripe. Not only was this good enough to fetch Gilgeous-Alexander his third All-Star and as many All-NBA nods, but the superstar bagged the first league MVP award of his career. <\/p>\n
Gilgeous-Alexander led the Thunder to a historic 68-win season, which saw the Bricktown ballers turn in the best point differential in league history, the best cross-conference record in the NBA’s history, the most wins in franchise history and OKC’s first championship. <\/p>\n
En route to that title, the Thunder superstar netted Western Conference Finals and NBA Finals MVP honors to put the cherry on top of what was a historic season for the NBA’s scoring champion. <\/p>\n
In the offseason, this production paid off with a massive contract extension, saw Gilgeous-Alexander grace the cover of the NBA 2K26 video game, nab a couple of ESPYs and now receives another honor from the League, this time voted on by the fans. <\/p>\n
The NBA announced via Social Media on Sunday that Gilgeous-Alexander has been voted the “Fashionable Fan Favorite” by the league’s fans, crowning him the 2025 Michelob ULTRA Style of the Year winner. <\/p>\n
This is an honor that has only grown in importance as League Fits and tunnel walks from players are now ingrained in the basketball fans’ ecosystem. Gilgeous-Alexander takes great pride in his fashion and style off the court, being very open about that part of his life. <\/p>\n
Quickly, the Oklahoma City Thunder’s superstar sees his mantle being crowded. The accomplishments are far from over for the now 27-year-old. <\/p>\n
In October, the NBA, in partnership with Netflix, will release season two of The Starting 5, a behind-the-scenes glimpse into NBA stars which Gilgeous-Alexander was tabbed a year ago. <\/p>\n
Netflix crews followed the eventual MVP the entire season, eventually leading to him hoisting the Larry O’Brien trophy for the first time in his career. <\/p>\n
This documentary will allow Thunder fans to relive the best season in franchise history, but through a unique lens with access to the OKC organization that no one has seen before. <\/p>\n
The awards and superlatives just continue to follow and find Gilgeous-Alexander. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Oklahoma City Thunder have seen Shai Gilgeous-Alexander put together one of the most impressive years of any…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":43499,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[434],"tags":[49,48,459,82],"class_list":["post-43498","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-nba","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-nba","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/43498","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=43498"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/43498\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/43499"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=43498"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=43498"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=43498"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
