Shai Gilgeous-Alexander’s historic scoring consistency remained intact Sunday, but not without a tense finish.

In Oklahoma City’s win over the Minnesota Timberwolves, Gilgeous-Alexander barely extended his NBA-record streak of games with at least 20 points, pushing it to 128. The guard needed a late flurry to get there, preserving a run that has become one of the league’s defining individual benchmarks.

A streak that keeps growing

Gilgeous-Alexander’s 20-point streak has been a nightly constant for Oklahoma City, and Sunday’s result added another entry — even if it came down to the final moments. The milestone underscores both his scoring reliability and the pressure that comes with maintaining a record-setting run.

Oklahoma City’s victory over Minnesota ensured the streak continued alongside a team win, with Gilgeous-Alexander again reaching the 20-point threshold — just barely — to keep the record alive.
