Shai Gilgeous-Alexander News: Available for playoff opener

Gilgeous-Alexander (shin) will be available Sunday for Game 1 of the Thunder's first-round playoff series versus the Grizzlies.

The star floor general missed the final three games of the regular season due to a shin contusion, but his absences were precautionary due to the Thunder having already secured the league's top record. Gilgeous-Alexander finished the regular season with an average of 34.2 minutes per game over 76 appearances, but he'll likely get his playing time pushed up in the playoffs while the Thunder face stiffer competition.
