13. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander/Danilo Gallinari, Oklahoma City Thunder

Combined stats: 38 points, 12 rebounds, five assists 

Checking in at No. 13 is the dynamic duo of Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and Danilo Gallinari, who were a huge part of the Oklahoma City Thunder‘s unexpected success during the 2019-20 NBA season. Before the hiatus, the Thunder were well on their way to making some noise in the Western Conference playoffs.

OKC is currently sitting in the fifth seed in the Western Conference standings and is only 1.5 games back of the third-seed. To say that what they’ve done this season is anything short of spectacular would be an understatement.

While Chris Paul also deserves a ton of praise for the culture and leadership that he’s brought into the locker room, SGA and Galo have been the heart and soul of this team’s offense and have injected the firepower that Paul has needed next to him.

Should the playoffs resume at some point in the summer, there’s no question that the Thunder is going to be one of the most dangerous teams in the West, thanks in large part to the team’s dynamic duo.
