Victory at Paycom Center was the Thunder’s fifth in a row. They became the first side to 50 wins this season and sit top of the Western Conference.

Gilgeous-Alexander said: “If we were the best team last year, all year, we win a championship, and we get better, we should put ourselves in great position to repeat.

“This year’s had a little bit more ups and downs for us, but I think we’ve done a pretty good job keeping that front of mind.”

The Warriors – again missing the injured Stephen Curry – scored seven unanswered points to reduce the Thunder’s lead to 99-97 before a three-pointer from Gilgeous-Alexander in the final minute.

Michael Porter Jr scored 30 points as the Brooklyn Nets came from 23 points down to win 107-105 at Eastern Conference leaders Detroit Pistons and end a 10-game losing streak.

Giannis Antetokounmpo scored 27 points as the Milwaukee Bucks beat the visiting Utah Jazz 113-99.

Jalen Johnson’s 35 points, 10 rebounds, and seven assists helped the Atlanta Hawks to a 125-116 home win over the Philadelphia 76ers.

Kawhi Leonard scored 28 points as the Los Angeles Clippers overturned a 19-point first-half deficit to win 123-120 at the Memphis Grizzlies.

The Orlando Magic won 119-92 at the Minnesota Timberwolves despite Anthony Edwards’ 34 points for the hosts.
