In this season's playoffs, Alexander played a total of 23 games, averaging 29.9 points, 5.3 rebounds, and 6.5 assists per game. He successfully led the Thunder to win the first championship in team history, which is a feat that the third young master of the Thunder has never achieved. Although Durant, Westbrook and Harden also led the Thunder to the finals in 20212, they did not win the championship.

In the finals, Alexander averaged 30.3 points, 4.6 rebounds, 5.6 assists, 1.9 steals and 1.6 blocks per game, so he won the FMVP without any suspense. Alexander not only successfully led the team to win the championship, but also played nearly 30+5+5 in the finals, and the number of steals and blocks was close to twice, which was even more amazing.

It is worth mentioning that Alexander has played in a total of 23 playoff games this season, scoring a total of 688 points, averaging only 29.9 points per game, and only two points away from being able to average 30 points per game, but it is not much different from averaging 30+. In other words, Alexander averaged nearly 30+5+5 in the entire playoffs, and led the team to win the championship.

In the history of the playoffs, he averaged 30+5+5 per game per season, and led the team to win the championship, and there were only a handful of players who won the FMVP. Alexander almost became the sixth player in history to do this, comparable to Jordan (3 times), James, Kobe, Antetokounmpo and Jokic. During his first three consecutive championships, Jordan averaged 30+5+5 per game in the playoffs for three consecutive years, and led the Bulls to the championship. He is also the only player in history who can do this many times. During the second three-game championship, Jordan averaged more than 30 points per game in the playoffs, but did not average more than 5 rebounds and assists per game.

Kobe also averaged 30+5+5 per game in the 2009 playoffs, and led the Lakers to the championship. James also averaged 30+5+5 in the 2012 playoffs and successfully won his first career championship. In fact, James and Kobe have scored 30+5+5 in the single-season playoffs more than once, but unfortunately they failed to win the championship in other seasons.

In addition, among the active players, Antetokounmpo and Jokic also averaged 30+5+5 in the 2021 and 2023 playoffs, and won the championship and FMVP. Moreover, both of them have double-digit rebounds per game, and Jokic can average nearly 30+ triple-double per game.

Alexander is only two points away from averaging 30+ games in the playoffs, but it is basically equivalent to playing 30+5+5 averages. Therefore, Alexander's championship and FMVP this season are indeed valuable.
