Duane Rankin: "I think it is, but I'm going to iso Shai when I get a chance to." Dillon Brooks when asked about Jordan Ott saying the Suns can't "iso" the Thunder and that being a point of emphasis going into Game 2 as he referencing to fellow Canadian, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander. "Why not? He's a good defender overall, but I just like the matchup. Team Canada, we've been going at it for awhile. I won't forget our 1-on-1s that we had in Paris. You can ask him who got the best of who, but you see a guy like that going hard on the offensive end all game and trying to get a rest on defense, I'll find a way make him use his legs, use his hands, use his mind on that defensive end, most of the time, he's going to break down and then you can go out and make plays." #Suns #ThunderUp — 4/21/2026 x.com
