OKC defeated the Minnesota Timberwolves 128-126 in Monday's Game 4 of the Western Conference Finals at Target Center and now leads the series 3-1. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander led the way as he typically does, but it was a trio of Thunder playmakers who proved to be too much for the Timberwolves.

While the Thunder absolutely earned their Game 4 win, the ending was once again devoid of drama. How does the NBA correct this?

Alexander, Chet Holmgren and Jalen Williams combined for 95 points and have the Thunder one win from the NBA Finals.

Jalen Williams landed on the All-NBA third team. Williams is still on his rookie contract. But his recent All-NBA selection brings him one step closer to securing a bigger payday on his next deal. Here's what you need to know: Williams was selected by OKC with the 12th overall pick in the 2022 NBA Draft.
