Although claiming he wants Serbia to join the European Union,

Williams scored 34 points on 13-for-24 shooting in Game 4, ain the series. His biggest shot came in the fourth quarter. MVP Shai Gilgeous-Alexander threw a pass between Jaden McDaniels’ legs while doing the splits and falling to the ground, and

that gave the Thunder a 116-109 lead.“Honestly I think the clock was low so I was just kind of like, ‘Shoot it.’ ... Just shots in general, I work really hard and shoot a lot of them, so when I’m shooting them, that’s kind of my mindset going into it: Just being aggressive and take what the defense gives me,” Williams said.was critical, and it gave the Thunder some much-needed cushion against a Timberwolves team that did not quit.

“This journey is not easy, and it’s not meant to be easy,” Williams said. “These experiences will make us better. Down the stretch, you’ve got to know the score, obviously, but you can’t let that affect the game. They’re going to score. They’re a really good team. ... I think a lot of it is we just stayed with it.”While Gilgeous-Alexander has garnered most of the attention for the Thunder this season, Williams quietly has stacked up accolades and played a key role in their league-best 68-14 regular-season record. Williams was named an All-Star for the first time, then was selected third-team All-NBA and second-team all-defense.

It hasn’t been all smooth for Williams in the playoffs — he hit some ruts against Denver in the Western Conference semifinals and he scored only 13 points in the Game 3 blowout loss at Minnesota on Saturday. But Thunder coach Mark Daigneault said the 24-year-old Williams keeps improving because he has the right approach to the game. He is averaging 23 points on 49% shooting from the field and 50% shooting from 3-point range in the series.

“The thing I’m impressed with about him is his ability to learn from his experiences very quickly is impressive,” Daigneault said. “He had some games in the Denver series that he wasn’t great offensively. He just looks at it in a very intentional way and improves.”, Milei named Murray, Milton, Robert and Lucas after the

Milei still refers to Conan in the present tense, leading to intense speculation about the number of dogs he owns. Since assuming office, his dogs have remained out of sight. A government resolution prohibiting officials from disclosing information to the public about Milei’s mastiffs has done little to tamp down on the controversy.Macetas con plantas y un bol de perro junto a la tumba de Milo en el cementerio para mascotas de Jardines del Almas, ubicado dentro de un refugio de animales a las afueras de Buenos Aires, Argentina, el martes 6 de mayo de 2025.
