(Saba Sports News) Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, building on his All-NBA First Team achievement, has become a 2024 MVP candidate and a prominent figure in the NBA fashion scene, notably as a Brand Ambassador for Kim Kardashian’s ‘SKIMS’. In a recent interview with Kardashian, he shared his morning routine and unique pregame rituals, like not listening to music and eating an apple before games for mental clarity.
Apart from his on-court prowess, Shai is making a mark in the fashion industry, walking in Paris Fashion Week and engaging in professional modeling. His work is bridging the gap between the NBA and fashion.
On the court, Shai’s role in transforming the Oklahoma City Thunder is evident. He’s evolved from a promising rookie with the Clippers to a key player in the Thunder’s rebuild. Despite not reaching the playoffs since 2020, Shai’s impressive stats (averaging 30.5 points, 6.0 rebounds, and 6.1 assists) and the Thunder’s strong team dynamics this season indicate a promising playoff run. Shai’s influence extends beyond basketball, solidifying his status as one of the NBA’s emerging superstars and a notable personality in the fashion world.
