Thunder head coach Mark Daigneault and Alex Caruso talked to the local media. It was the first time they had the chance to speak about the Nuggets matchup. Daigneault discussed the MVP conversation that'll cloud the playoff series while Caruso talked about defending Jamal Murray and Russell Westbrook.

Ripping the ball away from Ivica Zubac, Russell Westbrook threw down a vicious breakaway dunk that was more than worth the technical foul he received as he hung on the rim and busted his vocal cords at the Denver crowd.
