Even after Oklahoma City Thunder star Shai Gilgeous-Alexander put up 52 points, it wasn't enough as the team lost to the Golden State Warriors on Wednesday night, 116-109. Though the Warriors ruined a masterful performance from the Thunder star, head coach Mark Daigneault would give credit where credit is due after the game.

Thunder head coach Mark Daigneault's honest admission of Shai Gilgeous-Alexander's humble approach as a leader

What Oklahoma City calls a "0-0 mentality" is drilled into its members. That process has resulted in the team owning the NBA's best record.

Thunder head coach Mark Daigneault and Aaron Wiggins talked to the local media. Daigneault discussed Gilgeous-Alexander's evolution of handling double teams. Wiggins was happy to see Daigneauit be named an All-Star coach.

Gilgeous-Alexander is averaging a league-leading 32.5 points per game, and plays maestro to one of the most high-octane offenses in all of basketball. While the Warriors got the better of them on Wednesday night, head coach Steve Kerr was quick to acknowledge the challenge that SGA presents.

Alexander could score 50, shackled by efficiency and blowout wins. One week later, it's been required of the Thunder star. Twice.  But in a loss? That felt unfathomable. Incomputable. Illegal.

Steph Curry dropped 17 points in the second half and made key plays down the stretch. Andrew Wiggins dropped a team-high 27 points, including five 3-pointers. Kevon Looney matched his regular season career-high with 18 points and Gary Payton II (15 points, nine rebounds) stamped the game with a vicious slam dunk with under a minute left.
