This season Gilgeous-Alexander has been a metronome of scoring and is likely going to finish second in MVP voting. He is averaging 30.3 points per game scoring 30-plus points in 51 games and at least 20-plus points in 69 games this season.
Oklahoma City will finish as the number one seed in the Western Conference with a win, with losses from all three teams tied at the top of the standings, the Denver Nuggets and Minnesota Timberwolves, or with a win and a Minnesota loss. Finishing as the number one seed in the Western Conference would set the path to the NBA Finals through Oklahoma City for the first time since 2014.
For Dallas, it will be without Doncic, who is having an MVP caliber season averaging 33.9 points, 9.8 assists and 9.2 rebounds per game. He is going to finish the season number one in points per game and second in assists per game.
