History is knocking on Shai Gilgeous-Alexander's door, and it's got Wilt Chamberlain's name on it.
SGA has now scored 20+ points in 125 consecutive games. One more game, and he ties Wilt's record that has stood since 1963. Sixty-three years. That's how long this record has been untouched.
And he did it in the most SGA way possible - hitting a clutch sidestep three over Draymond Green to seal a win against the Golden State Warriors, notching the Oklahoma City Thunder's 50th win of the season.
Let me put this in perspective, folks. We're talking about consistency at the highest level for more than a year and a half. No off nights. No games where he disappears. No injuries that derail the streak. Just night after night of elite production.
This isn't just volume scoring either - SGA is doing this while leading Oklahoma City to the best record in the NBA. He's the engine that makes the Thunder go, playing elite defense, making clutch shots, and never taking a night off.
Next game? Against Denver. That's where he can tie Wilt. Then, if he keeps it going, he could break the record at home against the Boston Celtics. Imagine that - making history in front of your home crowd against the defending champions.
When you talk about the MVP race, SGA's name is right there at the top. This is one of the great individual seasons in modern NBA history, and we're watching it unfold in real time.
