On Nov. 1, 2024, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander scored 30 points in a 137-114 Oklahoma City Thunder win in Portland. It wasn't an especially notable performance at the time; Gilgeous-Alexander had averaged 30.1 points per game the previous season en route to an MVP runner-up finish.
But 16 months later, that game carries great historical importance, as it was the start of a 126-game odyssey for a player who's since won the regular-season MVP award, been named Finals MVP and tied a 63-year-old record.
