Rookie Wire released its latest NBA power rankings this past Monday and the Oklahoma City Thunder drop a spot and come in last as they go from 29th last week to 30th this week:
“The losing streak for the Thunder has hit seven games. To make matters worse, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander is expected to be sidelined through at least the All-Star break due to an ankle injury. In the meantime, they will need others to step up to get back on track.”
The Thunder went 0-2 during the Jan. 24 to Jan. 30 week with losses to the Chicago Bulls and Indiana Pacers.
During the week, Lu Dort led the team in scoring with 21.5 points, Josh Giddey led the team in rebounding with nine rebounds and Shai Gilgeous-Alexander led the team in assists with 6.5 a game.
