In a Western Conference matchup, the Oklahoma City Thunder beat the Golden State Warriors thanks to Shai Gilgeous-Alexander's impressive performance.

The Oklahoma City Thunder defeated the Curry-less Golden State Warriors 105-101, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander scored 35 points, and Jalen Williams left the game late in the first half due to a right eye injury.

Gilgeous-Alexander shot 13 for 28 in Oklahoma City's third consecutive victory, building on his 37-point effort from Monday's 130–109 triumph over Sacramento.

After missing two games due to illness, Kuminga came back to start for the Warriors, who were without Stephen Curry because of knee soreness in both knees.

Kuminga scored a team-high 19 points but was not enough in the game.

Oklahoma City took advantage of Golden State's 11 first-half turnovers to score 15 points.

This is the first time the Warriors would lose without Curry after defeating the Pelicans twice and Houston without the two-time MVP.
