OKC Thunder GRAB MOMENTUM in Win | Jaylin Williams Returns | Big 3 Shine

Oklahoma City Thunder grab a crucial third straight win, surging past the Miami Heat as Jaylin Williams returns with a game-changing presence on the glass and defensive end. Can Chet Holmgren’s momentum and the breakthrough from the Big Three propel OKC back into elite form?

Rylan Stiles breaks down the Thunder’s rejuvenated defensive intensity, Jaylin Williams’ impactful return, and how Shai Gilgeous-Alexander overcame a cold start to lead the offense. Key topics include Jalen Williams’ smart adjustments, OKC’s board dominance without Isaiah Hartenstein, and whether Mark Daigneault’s rotation shifts—including not closing with Lu Dort—signal a new blueprint. Plus, find out how the Thunder’s shot creation and relentless effort on second chance points kept Miami at bay. With a statement victory and a vital matchup against the San Antonio Spurs looming, have the Thunder finally rediscovered their winning formula?
