Unlocking the Secret Behind the Story Everyone's Talking About—What They Didn’t Tell You

Again, part of the reason Gilgeous-Alexander’s on-court rating was so high was that he was playing on an exceptional team. Still, the Thunder were 11.1 points better per 100 when Gilgeous-Alexander was on the floor than on the bench – a clear indicator he was the one driving their success. 

Durant surpassed that on-off mark a couple times with Oklahoma City, but neither of those instances took place during his MVP season (his on-off rating in the 2013-14 season was +6 per 100). Meanwhile, Westbrook’s on-off was higher in 2016-17 (+12.5 per 100), but that can be explained by him lifting up a mediocre team and not having a suitable backup to carry the load when he was on the bench (the Thunder’s other point guards were guys like Cameron Payne, Norris Cole and Semaj Christon).
