Thunder's Shai Gilgeous-Alexander: Drops 20 points in win
Gilgeous-Alexander posted 20 points (5-10 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 9-13 FT), three rebounds, two assists and one steal in 27 minutes during Canada's 88-85 win over Spain on Friday.
Gilgeous-Alexander has unsurprisingly been integral to Canada's undefeated run in the group stage of the Olympics, and he's scored at least 20 points in two of his three appearances. He was particularly effective from the charity stripe Friday and drained several late free throws to help clinch the win. Gilgeous-Alexander should remain heavily involved during the knockout round.

Thunder's Shai Gilgeous-Alexander: Team-high seven assists in win
Gilgeous-Alexander posted 21 points (5-10 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 9-10 FT), seven assists, five rebounds, two blocks and one steal across 30 minutes in Canada's 86-79 win over Greece in the Paris Olympics on Saturday.
While Greece tried to contain Gilgeous-Alexander, he continued to find a way to score and feed his teammates along the way. The All-Star had a team-high seven assists, and he also led the team in blocks. The 26-year-old will likely continue to serve as the No. 1 option for Canada, and his ability to score and find his teammates will be an extremely important factor in the squad's potential success.

Thunder's Shai Gilgeous-Alexander: Starring for Canada
Gilgeous-Alexander is on the Canadian national team's roster for the 2024 Paris Olympics.
After coming in second for the KIA NBA Most Valuable Player for 2023-24, Gilgeous-Alexander is set to focus his offseason efforts on the Olympics. In a team littered with NBA talent, Canada has expectations to compete for a medal in Paris. Even alongside players like Jamal Murray, RJ Barrett, Luguentz Dort and Andrew Nembhard, Gilgeous-Alexander should operate as the squad's go-to scorer.

Thunder's Nikola Topic: Undergoes knee procedure
Topic underwent a successful left ACL procedure Wednesday and will miss the 2024-25 season, Clemente Almanza of USA Today reports.
It was previously reported that Topic would miss the entire 2024-25 season, but the Thunder will be relieved that the surgery was a success and the rookie can slowly begin his rehab process. The No. 12 pick in the 2024 NBA Draft, Topic will be an exciting prospect for the Thunder to develop in the coming years.

Thunder's Keyontae Johnson: Dazzles in SL finale
Johnson generated 20 points (8-16 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 4-7 FT), nine rebounds, six assists and a block across 30 minutes of Saturday's 88-79 win over Dallas in Summer League.
Johnson tied for the team lead in points and assists en route to OKC's first victory in Las Vegas. Johnson spent the 2023-24 campaign on a two-way contract and appeared in nine regular-season NBA games. However, with Ajay Mitchell, Alex Ducas (hip) and Adam Flagler occupying the Thunder's three two-way contracts, Johnson will likely spend the upcoming season with the Oklahoma City Blue unless another suitor swoops in.

Thunder's Adam Flagler: Done for Summer League
Flagler will sit out the rest of Summer League to give other players more opportunities, Clemente Almanza of USA Today reports.
Flagler, Ajay Mitchell and Dillon Jones were all shut down Wednesday and will set their eyes on getting ready for the regular season. A two-way player, Flagler averaged 14.1 points per game last season with the Thunder's G League affiliate and flashed his impressive scoring ability in Summer League.

Thunder's Ajay Mitchell: Sitting out remainder of SL
Mitchell won't play in another Summer League game in order to allow more opportunities for other players, Clemente Almanza of USA Today reports.
The Thunder must have liked what they saw out of Mitchell, as they feel good enough about the No. 38 pick in the 2024 NBA draft to shut him down after five Summer League games. The UC Santa Barbara product was signed to a two-way deal and should split time between the NBA and the G League as a rookie.

Thunder's Dillon Jones: Done for Summer League
Jones will sit out the rest of Summer League to give other players opportunities to play, Clemente Almanza of USA Today reports.
Jones is fully healthy, but after showing well in Salt Lake City and Las Vegas, he'll focus on getting ready for the regular season. This year's 26th overall draft pick averaged 13.0 points, 7.2 rebounds and 4.2 assists per game in five Summer League outings.

Thunder's Ajay Mitchell: Paces scoring attack
Mitchell totaled 21 points (8-14 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 4-4 FT), two rebounds, five assists, one steal and one block in 25 minutes during Monday's 102-73 Summer League loss to the Heat.
Mitchell was one of the lone bright spots in a blowout loss, leading the team in scoring by knocking down 57.1 percent of his tries from the field. It was nice to see the 22-year-old bounce back following a 6-for-18 shooting performance from the field Saturday against Toronto.

Thunder's Ousmane Dieng: Shut down for Summer League
Oklahoma City Blue assistant coach Daniel Dixon announced Friday that Dieng will not play in any more Summer League games, Brandon Rahbar of DailyThunder.com reports.
Dieng doesn't appear to have suffered any injury but will shut down for the remainder of the Summer League. The 21-year-old forward will look to compete for increased minutes for the Thunder this season, after averaging 4.0 points, 1.5 rebounds and 1.1 assists in 11.1 minutes across 33 NBA appearances in 2023-24.
