Oklahoma City Thunder superstar Shai Gilgeous-Alexander has parted ways with his agent, Thad Foucher of Wasserman, and will now represent himself, sources confirmed to ESPN.
Gilgeous-Alexander is eligible to sign a super maximum extension with the Thunder this summer worth nearly $300 million.
Foucher also represented former longtime Thunder star Russell Westbrook before the pair parted ways in 2022.
Gilgeous-Alexander, 26, is having an MVP-caliber season for the top-ranked Thunder, averaging a league-best 32.5 points per game while shooting 52.3% from the field.
The Oklahoma City star’s decision to part ways with his agent was first reported by NBA insider Chris Haynes.
