The OKC Thunder just took a huge gamble on Jalen Williams (JDub). He's missed over half OKC Thunder’s contests with injuries this year, but saved his season's best for Dillon Brooks and the Phoenix Suns. Returning to All-NBA form in the 136-104 blowout (and Shai Gilgeous-Alexander's absence), he made his first 11 field goals in just 20 mins of court time tonight -- showing out, and left zero doubt that he can be the first option on any given night. But the thunder paid the price for putting Williams at risk: he exited the dominant game early. Today, Gabriel Ebersole goes into some film from his great game, as well as three teammates (Jared McCain, Isaiah Joe, Kenrich Williams) that rose to the occasion, while discussing how JDub will carry OKC's offensive load in SGA's absence...if the Thunder didn't just blow it.
