Oklahoma City Thunder | Game #13 Preview: Golden State Warriors

It’s not even been 48 hours since the Oklahoma City Thunder defeated the Golden State warriors 128-109, and now it’s time to do it all over again. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and Josh Giddey had solid all-around games, and Isaiah Joe had the hot hand as he knocked down 7-of-7 threes, but just because OKC won big on Thursday doesn’t mean a repeat is bound to happen tonight.

Warriors head coach Steve Kerr knows what he’s doing, so the Thunder have to be ready for a lot of adjustments. Thunder head coach Mark Daigneault isn’t too shabby himself, though, so he’ll have his team ready to go for another tough matchup on the road.
