The Oklahoma City Thunder beat the Memphis Grizzlies, 119-103, on Monday night. The Thunder took the lead for good late in the first quarter and won by double digits, but the Grizzlies stuck around for most of the game and it was very close midway through the fourth quarter.
That's when Shai Gilgeous-Alexander took over. After a Kentavious Caldwell-Pope three made it a 101-97 game with 5:39 remaining, the reigning MVP scored or assisted on five of the Thunder's next seven possessions over a stretch of three and a half minutes. By the time the flurry was over the Thunder were up, 115-99.
