Shai Gilgeous-Alexander scored 32 points on 12-of-15 shooting to guide the visiting Oklahoma City Thunder to a 118-102 win over the short-handed Philadelphia 76ers on Tuesday.

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander scored 32 points and Jalen Williams had 24 to lead the Oklahoma City Thunder to a 118-102 win over a Philadelphia 76ers team missing three All-Stars on Tuesday night. Joel Embiid, Tyrese Maxey and Paul George sat out with injuries as the Sixers continued their slide down the Eastern Conference standings.

Full of championship ambition, the 76ers’ slogan for this season was “Made for This.” As boos filled the arena — the first ones heard when an injury report as long as the closing credits on a blockbuster movie appeared on the big screen — Sixers fans had a more irked saying in mind.
