Canada’s Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and the Oklahoma City Thunder are back among the NBA’s elite in 2025-26, one year after SGA punctuated an MVP season with OKC’s first championship.
After becoming the first Canadian to win most valuable player since Steve Nash in 2006, Hamilton, Ont.’s Gilgeous-Alexander has been every bit as impressive in 2025-26, winning the Northern Star Award as Canada’s top athlete for 2025.
