Oklahoma City Thunder Betting Preview
The Oklahoma City Thunder have cooled off a bit recently as they are now looking to avoid a third straight defeat after getting beaten by the Trail Blazers in a 118-108 road loss on Wednesday. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander led the team with 31 points on nine of 20 shooting, Isaiah Hartenstein added 20 points with 11 rebounds and six assists while Alex Caruso chipped in with 14 points, seven rebounds and three steals. As a team, the Thunder shot 42 percent from the field and 11 of 36 from the 3-point line as they got off to another poor start and scored just 18 points in the second quarter to .. as they went on a 42-28 run in the second to take the lead after trailing by 14 points, but they ran out of gas and got outscored by 19-9 in the final 5:57 to allow the Trail Blazers off the hook in the end.
Los Angeles Clippers Betting Preview
Meanwhile, the Los Angeles Clippers have been in terrible shape as they’ve lost eight of their first 10 games and they will be hoping for a better effort after getting scorched by the Suns in a 133-110 road defeat on Tuesday. Rui Hachimura, Darius Garland and Baba Miller each scored 13 points while Max Strus chipped in with 12 points. As a team, the Clippers shot just 42 percent from the field and 15 of 44 from the 3-point line as they struggled from the start, scoring just 18 points in the first quarter and trailing by as many as 32 points before they poured in 38 points in the fourth quarter to bring some respectability to the final margin.
Oklahoma City v Los Angeles Free Prediction
The Thunder have ruled out Jalen Williams, Cason Wallace, Chet Holmgren, Jaylin Williams and Ajay Mitchell, while the Clippers are still missing Bradley Beal, Jordan Miller and Brandon Ingram.
The Thunder have gone off the boil recently thanks to two tough losses to the Trail Blazers, but I am sure they can’t wait to get back on the court to battle the banged up Clippers who have been nothing but disappointing so far. The Thunder have owned this matchup as they’ve won the last eight meetings and I think that trend continues here as the Thunder get back in the win column behind a big game from Gilgeous-Alexander.
