SALT LAKE CITY — Shai Gilgeous-Alexander<\/a> scored 31 points, Oklahoma City had a 33-4 run and the defending champion Thunder<\/a> routed the Utah Jazz<\/a> 144-112<\/a> on Friday night in NBA Cup play to improve to 16-1 and push their winning streak to eight.<\/p>\n

The Thunder trailed by as many as 18 points in the first half; their 32-point win was the largest by any team that trailed by 15 or more points in the play-by-play era (since 1997-98).<\/p>\n

It was also Oklahoma City’s second-largest comeback win this season, after it trailed the Memphis Grizzlies<\/a> by 19 points Nov. 9. The Thunder improved to 5-0 when trailing by double digits, the only team without a loss in such games.<\/p>\n

Gilgeous-Alexander was shooting less than 27% on 3-pointers after seven games but has made half his long-range shots since then and all three attempts from beyond the arc against Utah to go along with 9-of-13 shooting from the field and 10-of-12 from the line.<\/p>\n
