Alexander: I am still far from my peak. It will take a long time to master all the basketball skills.

In the NBA Cup group match on November 9, the Thunder defeated the Kings 132-101 at home.

After the game, Alexander accepted an interview with reporters. When asked where his upper limit is, he said: "I think it's still far away. There are many aspects of basketball that need to be mastered, especially in my position, where I often have the ball. As the main starting point on the offensive end, running without the ball, scoring at different levels, defensive performance, fast break scoring, etc., these all need to be mastered. I have heard coaches talk about playing against Rondo (former NBA All-Star), it is like playing against a coach on the court. He knows all your tactics, And being able to anticipate your next move. In basketball, there are many angles and ways to give you and your team an advantage on every possession, in every quarter, and even in the entire game. Until I fully master these techniques, it may take a while. It's been a long time, so I'm still far from the peak."

In this campaign, Alexander played 29 minutes and 27 seconds, making 12 of 21 shots, 2 of 7 three-pointers, 4 of 4 free throws, and scored 30 points, 1 rebound, 3 assists, 2 steals and 1 block.
