Oklahoma City Thunder superstar Shai Gilgeous-Alexander has a perfect response to the 'free-throw merch' chants he's endured all series long.

Being cheered is neat, but being booed is fun. Nothing like pouring cold water over the opposition's dreams. Gilgeous-Alexander was met with "free-throw merchant" chants every time he went to the charity stripe. It's a nickname tied to him over the years as he's ascended to one of the NBA's best players.

Standing at 6-6 with a slender frame, Gilgeous-Alexander has mastered the ability to control his body in a way that forces defenders to illegally contact him. However, that isn't necessarily the most appealing way to watch basketball, so fans came up with the nickname.
