Series History

Why the Thunder Will Cover (+5)
The Nets are one of the best teams in the league, but with Kevin Durant now missing from the lineup for quite some with a sprained MCL in his right knee, the wins probably won’t come as easily. Still, Brooklyn has plenty of talent, and the Thunder has their work cut out for them wrapping up a 4-game road trip against one of the Eastern Conference’s best. OKC has been rolling, though, and with that in mind, this should make for a close one.
Staff Picks
Why the Game Will Hit the Over (230)
The Nets losing Kevin Durant for a while takes away one of the league’s top scorers, but Brooklyn shouldn’t struggle to find points with some of the weapons that they have. Meanwhile, the Thunder has been hot lately, largely due to their ability to score at will. With all of that in mind, I can see this one being a high-scoring affair.
