No one has been able to slow down or stop Shai Gilgeous-Alexander this season.
The Oklahoma City Thunder star has been on a tear since the start of the year and it doesn’t look like he will be slowing down any time soon.
He has been posting huge numbers night after night.
Legion Hoops pointed out that Gilgeous-Alexander has 30+ points in eight of the nine games that he’s played in March.
Will anyone be able to prevent Gilgeous-Alexander from being named MVP and, possibly, an NBA champion?
Shai has 30+ points in 8 of the 9 games that he’s played in this month.

In a career filled with several great seasons, Gilgeous-Alexander is currently having his best yet.
He is averaging a league-high 32.9 points, 5.1 rebounds, and 6.3 assists per night, shooting 52.8 percent from the field and 37.4 percent from beyond the arc.
He is also putting up a league-high 21.6 field goal attempts per game and landing 11.4 of them.
Gilgeous-Alexander has natural talent and skills to always find the basket, but his confidence has grown a lot this year too.
He has accepted the bright spotlight of his fame well and hasn’t shied away from being such a major public figure and team leader.
The Thunder have never been so good and Gilgeous-Alexander is obviously a huge reason why, because he is scoring a ton for them but also expertly guiding and inspiring them.
Now the biggest challenge is before them because the playoffs are right around the corner.
Fans are hoping that Gilgeous-Alexander can continue to deliver a strong stat line like this in the weeks ahead, otherwise, the Thunder might face a tough adjustment going from the regular season to the postseason.
Right now, he really is a walking bucket, but can he keep it up when the pressure grows in the playoffs?
