But here's where it gets controversial... Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, or SGA as he's known, is on a mission to break Oscar Robertson's record of 79 straight games with 20+ points. If he succeeds tonight, he'll secure the third-longest streak in NBA history. Will he make history, or will the Clippers stand in his way?
And this is the part most people miss... the supporting cast! Let's shine a light on Ryan Rollins, the Bucks' rising star. After the offseason trade of Damian Lillard and Kevin Porter Jr.'s injury, Rollins stepped up big time. With his lightning-quick drives, reliable shooting, and strong defense, he's become a key player for the Bucks. His 6-foot-10 wingspan and relentless motor make him a force to be reckoned with.
In our 'NBA Coast 2 Coast Tuesday' doubleheader, we kick things off with the Magic taking on the Hawks. Orlando and Atlanta, both with 3-4 records, are looking to find their rhythm after offseason changes. Can Paolo Banchero and Jalen Johnson lead their teams to victory?
The Thunder, on the other hand, are aiming for an Oklahoma City-era record of 8-0. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander's historic scoring run continues, and he's just one game away from making NBA history. But the Clippers, fresh from a close call against the Heat, are determined to hand OKC their first loss.
Also on tap, a battle of 5-1 teams as the Bulls face the 76ers. Josh Giddey, Tyrese Maxey, and VJ Edgecombe, three of the league's most exciting players, will go head-to-head in a backcourt showdown.
So, who will reign supreme tonight? Will Shai Gilgeous-Alexander etch his name in the record books? And which Duke alum will shine brighter, Banchero or Jalen Johnson?
