Oklahoma City Thunder guard Shai Gilgeous-Alexander loves everything that Isaiah Hartenstein has brought to the team this season (averaging 12.5 PPG/12.3 RPG/4.1 APG/1.2 BPG/57.9% FG in 10 games played).

(via Oklahoma City Thunder):

“He’s been amazing. Obviously, we lacked a little bit of physicality in the past as a group, and he’s been able to plug that hole immediately. And then the little things he does, like his IQ offensively, his passing, his playmaking, his touch around the rim, his screening. He’s opened the game up for guys like myself and the rest of the team. And then the most underrated part I would say is his unselfishness as a player. Every night he doesn’t care if he has 20 points, zero points, if he has 15 rebounds or zero rebounds. As long as we win and he affects it, he’s happy. There’s so many times I’ve tried to get him in a position to score, like help him get in a spot, and he’s just like, ‘I don’t care. As long as you get open, I’ll figure out the rest.’ For him to reciprocate that, is a cool feeling. The teammate he is, is what’s been special so far.”
