OKLAHOMA CITY — Shai Gilgeous-Alexander scored 23 points and the Oklahoma City Thunder beat the injury-depleted Milwaukee Bucks 125-107 on Friday night to boost their hopes of taking the No. 1 seed in the Western Conference playoffs. The Bucks played Friday without All-Stars Giannis Antetokounmpo and Damian Lillard. Milwaukee already had announced Wednesday that Antetokounmpo would miss the rest of the regular season with a strained left calf. Lillard was out with a sore left adductor. The Bucks could have clinched the No. 2 seed in the Eastern Conference playoffs with a win.
