If Gilgeous-Alexander does in fact win MVP, that would mean the Thunder have had an MVP winner of the past, present, or future in every single season since relocating from Seattle to Oklahoma City. Kevin Durant captured the prestigious award in 2013-14, while Russell Westbrook took home MVP in 2016-17.

The Oklahoma City Thunder star struggled with efficiency in his first three games against the Memphis Grizzlies but put the series to an end with a strong performance in Game 4.

Gilgeous-Alexander scored a game-high 38 points, helping OKC to a second-round date with the winner between the Clippers and Nuggets.
