OKC Thunder Star Reveals Stunning Trick To Staying Unbothered By Pressure

The Oklahoma City Thunder are having fun in the 2024 NBA Playoffs. How can they not? They are still undefeated so far in the postseason after demolishing Luka Doncic and the Dallas Mavericks in Game 1 of their second-round series Tuesday night at home.

While playoff basketball can be stressful to all parties involved in it, Thunder star Jalen Williams has a convenient way to keep the fun going; he just puts things into perspective.

“I get paid millions of dollars to dribble a basketball up and down the court. It’s hard not to be happy," Williams said during the postgame press conference (h/t Brandon Rahbar of the Daily Thunder).

Williams, who is earning $4.558 million in the 2023-24 NBA season, played a big role in the Thunder's 117-95 crushing of the Mavs in the series opener, as he put up 18 points with five rebounds and five assists in 36 minutes of action.

With a bubbly disposition, Williams will look to be even better on the court in Game 2 this coming Thursday.
