Extra on this storyline
Joel Lorenzi: Cason Wallace on guarding Shai Gilgeous-Alexander: “He doesn’t even know what he’s gonna do, so how will you know what he’s gonna do? I’ve no recommendation on guarding him.” -via Twitter / April 1, 2025
“We don’t care not one bit about any of these information,” Shai Gilgeous-Alexander mentioned. “They imply one thing, however within the grand scheme, they don’t. We’re after one factor and one factor solely. That’s what’s on our thoughts. All the things else we don’t care about.” The Thunder’s 28-point win over the Bulls was their forty ninth double-digit win this season. With that, they handed the 2016-17 Warriors — Kevin Durant’s first and greatest season within the Bay Space — for the second most double-digit wins ever. Assuming they get two extra (and the Pelicans and Jazz stay on the schedule), they’ll break the file of fifty set by the 1971-72 Lakers — , the workforce that employed prime Jerry West and Wilt Chamberlain. -via New York Occasions / April 1, 2025

Throughout his absence, Ball praised White and Giddey for his or her particular person performances and workforce management to buoy the Bulls by way of this optimistic stretch of the season. “I used to be tremendous happy with them,” Ball mentioned. “I used to be watching the video games. I used to be screaming on the TV, man. That’s in all probability the very best video games of this yr, the very best stretch for positive. It’s been an up-and-down season, however it’s a good time to get sizzling proper now. … With Coby enjoying how he’s enjoying, I really feel like we are able to beat anyone.” -via Chicago Tribune / March 26, 2025
