NBA: Thunder's struggles continue with shock loss to Hornets
"Brandon Miller scored 28 points as the Charlotte Hornets stunned NBA leaders Oklahoma City Thunder with a 124-97 win on Monday night. Kon Knueppel added 23 points for Charlotte, who had lost three of their previous four games before handing Oklahoma City its heaviest defeat of the season. The Thunder finished with a season-low points total and failed to score 100 points for the first time in the 2025-26 campaign."
"It was also Oklahoma City's first loss to a team that entered the game with a losing record since November 19, 2024. The Thunder had won 45 straight games against teams below .500 and were 50-2 in those matchups over the previous two seasons. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander scored 21 points to extend his streak to 108 consecutive games with at least 20 points, the second-longest run in NBA history. However, he made just seven of 21 shots from the field, his lowest shooting percentage of the season."
