Jaylin Williams Records First Triple-Double as Thunder Beat Trail Blazers 107-89

Oklahoma City Thunder center Jaylin Williams achieved his first career triple-double during a 107-89 win against the Portland Trail Blazers, scoring 10 points, grabbing 11 rebounds, and dishing out 11 assists. The game was significant as the Thunder were without six players, including their star Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, which made Williams' performance even more impressive. Teammates actively encouraged him throughout the game to pursue the triple-double, showcasing their confidence in his abilities. Williams is now one of the few players in Thunder history to have recorded a triple-double, joining the ranks of stars like Russell Westbrook. His recent performances have solidified his role on the team, and he may see increased minutes moving forward. Coach Mark Daigneault praised Williams for his growth and readiness to contribute under challenging circumstances.
