Series History

OKC went 4-0 against the Grizzlies in the 2024-25 regular season (2-0 at home, 2-0 on the road) before sweeping them in the first round of the Western Conference Playoffs (2-0 at home, 2-0 on the road).

Why the Thunder Will Cover (-10.5)

The Grizzlies are lacking a lot of depth right now, an area where OKC excels, even when injured. The Thunder’s shooting has vastly improved since the rough start to the season, which has fueled the offense in a lot of ways, and Memphis is not a great defensive team right now. I don’t think OKC struggles to slow down the Grizzlies, either. I’m thinking this might be another fourth-quarter full of rest for Shai Gilgeous-Alexander.

Why the Game Will Hit the Over (231.5)

While I do think OKC covers the spread, I still think Memphis scores close to their average by the end of the game. If that happens, and the Thunder wins big, the point total will go over the expected number easily.
