Redick: SGA was targeted by opponents, but still scored 30 points
6686 Sports News on November 13. In a regular season that ended today, the Thunder defeated the Lakers at home, defeating the Warriors and Lakers back-to-back.
In this game, Alexander only played 29 minutes, shooting 10 of 18, 2 of 7 three-pointers, 8 of 9 free throws, scoring 30 points, 5 rebounds, 9 assists and 2 interceptions.
After the game, reporters asked Lakers coach Redick: "JJ, I know, obviously, your focus is on your own team. But when you see Alexander and his consistent focus, it is not only reflected in the data production, but also in the attention to detail. He seemed to miss a three-pointer in the third quarter. I think they were already leading by 30 points, but he reacted like that ball was a game-winner. Like the key three-point shot. How dangerous is a player with this attitude?" Redick replied: "Yes, he is a killer, like many of the top players in the world. He gets the attention and strategy he deserves from the opponent's guards, like we do, but he still finds ways to score 30 points. He is a very, very good basketball player."
