Alexander told the world last year that his life was consistent across the board. But perhaps even he didn’t know it could get this deep.  On Friday, with his Thunder grinding and attempting to stomach more forgettable offense — a bug that’s lasted the better part of a road trip — Gilgeous-Alexander sized up his defender while up one.

So far Anthony Davis is having the best season of his decorated pro career, and LeBron James is inexplicably good for a 22-year veteran. They go against the best defense in the sport.

The Los Angeles Lakers, who won the NBA Cup last year, play the Oklahoma City Thunder while last year’s Cup finalist Indiana Pacers face elimination.
