Oklahoma City Thunder guard Shai Gilgeous-Alexander is the recipient of the Michael Jordan Trophy as the 2024-25 Kia NBA Most Valuable Player.

Gilgeous-Alexander has been named the Kia NBA MVP for the first time, having finished second in the voting last season and fifth in 2022-23. He becomes the second player from Canada to earn the honor, along with two-time winner Steve Nash (2004-05 and 2005-06). Gilgeous-Alexander is also the third player to win the award with the Thunder, joining Kevin Durant (2013-14) and Russell Westbrook (2016-17).

In the 2024-25 regular season, Gilgeous-Alexander averaged 32.7 points, 5.0 rebounds, 6.4 assists, 1.72 steals and 1.01 blocks in 34.2 minutes in 76 games, setting career highs in points, assists and blocks per game.

A seven-year veteran, Gilgeous-Alexander won the NBA scoring title for the first time. He became the first player to lead the league in games with at least 20 points (75), 30 points (49), 40 points (13) and 50 points (four) in a season since James Harden in 2018-19.

Gilgeous-Alexander’s only regular-season game with fewer than 20 points was an 18-point performance against the San Antonio Spurs on Oct. 30, 2024. He scored at least 20 points in each of his final 72 games, the longest streak at any point in a single season since 1963-64 (when Wilt Chamberlain recorded an 80-game streak and Oscar Robertson had a 76-game streak).

The 6-6 Gilgeous-Alexander shot 51.9% from the field, a career-high 37.5% from three-point range and 89.8% from the free throw line (sixth in the NBA). He made an NBA-leading 601 free throws and a personal-best 163 three-pointers, 68 more threes than his previous career high of 95, set last season.

Y’all some crybabies good lord, I get if you had Jokic MVP, But to act all butthurt that Shai won as if bro didn’t also have an all time season is moronic AF. Yall MFs have literally forced a false narrative on bro with the FT talk when he’s not even top ten in MVP FTs since 2000. Shai averaged MORE points off LESS FTs than some of the greatest and most respected scorers of all time, Yet yall act like his numbers are just so egregious. Dude has sick handles, Makes insanely difficult shots & Is ALWAYS persistent AF on D, Quit trying so hard not to give bro credit & Exaggerating his FT stats. For basically 33pts per game, His FTA is pretty tame. Dude absolutely balled out this season and is more than deserving of his first MVP.

The MVP Season That Made Russell Westbrook Immortal 🔥 | EVERY HIGHLIGHT 64

In honor of Russell Westbrook’s retirement, we’re bringing back one of the greatest individual seasons in NBA history.

During his 2016-17 MVP campaign, Westbrook averaged 31.6 PPG, 10.7 RPG, and 10.4 APG, becoming just the second player in NBA history—and the first in 55 years—to average a triple-double over an entire season. He led the Thunder to the playoffs while delivering one unforgettable clutch performance after another.

Relive the dunks, assists, game-winners, blocks, steals, and electrifying moments that made this one of the most iconic MVP seasons the league has ever seen.
