Shai Gilgeous-Alexander celebrated his second consecutive NBA MVP by giving Oklahoma City teammates Audemars Piguet watches and Burberry coats, according to a video shared Sunday.
The 27-year-old won over Nikola Jokić, Victor Wembanyama, Luka Dončić and Cade Cunningham, becoming the first Thunder player to capture back-to-back MVP awards.
His case was built on 31.1 points, 6.6 assists and 4.3 rebounds across 68 games while shooting 55.3% from the field and 38.6% from 3-point range.
Oklahoma City outscored opponents by 16.3 points per 100 possessions with Gilgeous-Alexander on the floor, versus plus-3.6 when he sat, underscoring his central role in the Thunder's rise.
