Thunder Against the Spread | OKC Given Edge Over Rockets in Houston

The Houston Rockets lead the league in rebounding with 4 players averaging at least 6.3 per game. In his four game in a Thunder jersey, Isaiah Hartenstein has averaged 14.0 rebounds. Hartenstein’s addition to OKC has made a drastic difference in the Thunder’s paint presence, particularly with the absence of Chet Holmgren. I see him slowing down what the Rockets like to do in the paint, and that would be bad news for Houston, which is a bottom-5 3-point shooting team. I’m taking OKC to cover and finish out the road trip with another win.
