Oklahoma City Thunder guard Shai Gilgeous-Alexander recently played his third NBA All-Star Game, and he has one gripe with this year’s revamped format.
The Canadian international joins Trae Young and James Harden in unison, saying there were too many breaks in between the games.
“The breaks weren’t ideal. I would rather play without breaks, but I had fun nonetheless,” Gilgeous-Alexander told reporters. “I feel like it was a little more towards the competitive tonight — which is a good feeling, a step in the right direction. I guess it’s up to the guys that handle all that stuff to figure out what’s next and how to make it more and more interesting.
“And hopefully, we get there one day. But, I’m glad it’s not my job to figure that stuff out, and I’m excited for the second half of the season,” he concluded.
Shai Gilgeous-Alexander changes representation ahead of crucial extension talks with the Oklahoma City Thunder
Shai Gilgeous-Alexander will look to represent himself moving forward, as he has parted ways with agent Thad Foucher of Wasserman.
The Oklahoma City Thunder star is eligible to sign a four-year, $294.3 million supermax extension this summer. He is on the third year of a five-year, $179.3 million deal.
Gilgeous-Alexander should have no problems getting his supermax. And the best part is that he doesn’t need to pay an agent fee on his next deal.
