Tom Orsborn: A collision with SGA resulted in Keldon Johnson needing three stitches after the game to close a "really deep" cut on the inside of his right cheek. It came after he had stitches in the preseason to close a cut on his chin. #Spurs

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander had not seen the Onion headline. We are talking in the back of a black SUV, parked in front of his offseason home in the Toronto suburbs, when I mention the bit of satire that went viral during the Western Conference Finals in May.

Can Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and the OKC Thunder win their second NBA title in three years? Here are our predictions for the 2026-27 season.

Spurs, where Shai Gilgeous-Alexander once again looked unstoppable on offense as Victor Wembanyama endured a "strange" start to his season.

Is it Wemby's time to win MVP? The odds say he's the early favorite. But he certainly has competition from several previous winners.

Adam Silver has officially leaked the script after saying SGA and the Thunder are due to return to the finals this season.

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander will give the Spurs' defense another challenge this season with his willingness to take more three-point shots off the catch.

OKC Thunder star Shai Gilgeous-Alexander has been "hungry" to prove the narrative wrong long before the NBA's recent GM survey.
