The Oklahoma City Thunder equalled the best 25-game start to a season in NBA history as they overpowered the Phoenix Suns 138-89 in the NBA Cup quarter-finals.
Defending champions the Thunder have won 24 of their first 25 games, equalling the Golden State Warriors’ record from 2015-16.
Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, last season’s Most Valuable Player, scored 28 points at Paycom Center, hitting the 20-point mark for a 96th straight game.
It was a franchise record 16th straight win for the Thunder, who face the San Antonio Spurs in the semi-finals in Las Vegas on Saturday.
“Winning is never boring,” said Thunder forward Jalen Williams.
