SGA's Father Ranks Top Point Guards: Doncic Omitted
4 Aug
Summary
- SGA's father ranked Shai Gilgeous-Alexander as the top point guard.
- Cade Cunningham and Ja Morant were ranked second and third respectively.
- Vaughn Alexander emphasized the importance of defense in player rankings.
In the current lull of the NBA offseason, Vaughn Alexander, father of Oklahoma City Thunder star Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, offered his perspective on the league's top point guards. During a social media livestream, Alexander revealed his personal rankings, placing his son, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, at the number one spot. This choice is understandable given Gilgeous-Alexander's status as a two-time MVP winner with consistent high scoring performances.
Alexander's list continued with Cade Cunningham at second and Ja Morant at third, a selection that deviates from conventional discussions. Notably absent from his top three was Luka Doncic. While acknowledging Doncic as a top player and recent MVP candidate, Alexander stressed the critical importance of defensive capabilities for NBA superstars, a standard he believes Gilgeous-Alexander consistently meets.
