Game Overview
The Oklahoma City Thunder, with a strong record, face the San Antonio Spurs, who are dealing with injuries and recent losses. The Thunder have been performing well defensively and offensively, while the Spurs are looking to keep the game close despite their challenges.
Key Factors to Consider
- Oklahoma City has been dominant, especially against Eastern Conference teams, with a 21-1 record. They have a strong defensive presence, allowing the fewest points in the paint and fastbreak points. San Antonio, however, is struggling after losing Victor Wembanyama for the season.
- The Thunder have a 7-3 record against the Spurs in recent matchups, both in terms of straight-up wins and against the spread. They have consistently outscored the Spurs, averaging 118.80 points per game compared to San Antonio's 106.20.
- The Spurs are without Victor Wembanyama for the rest of the season, which significantly impacts their lineup. The Thunder had Isaiah Joe ruled out with a lower back soreness, but Chet Holmgren played despite a calf contusion.
- The Spurs are on a back-to-back, which could affect their performance. The Thunder are coming off a strong win against the Hawks and have had more rest.
- Both teams have motivation, but the Thunder are more driven to maintain their strong season record. The Spurs are looking to prove themselves despite their current challenges.
