Let’s just pretend that Saturday’s game in Houston never happened. OKC should come out against the Pelicans with much better energy, and I anticipate the Thunder backcourt to thrive since the Pelicans should be missing Brandon Ingram and CJ McCollum. I don’t know if OKC wins this one because Zion Williamson and Jonas Valanciunas will surely give the Thunder fits, but it’ll be close for sure.

Tonight, the Thunder hosts the Portland Trail Blazers, a team that has also been bitten by the injury bug. Without CJ McCollum and Jusuf Nurkic, Damian Lillard has had to shoulder the load more so than normal, and as a result, Portland is 16-10 and sitting at 5th in the Western Conference.

Now the Thunder continues their 5-game road trip as they get ready to take on the Portland Trail Blazers (9-6). The Blazers are fresh off a 116-113 home victory over the New York Knicks, a game that was much closer than it should have been after the Blazers went into halftime with a 22-point lead.

It is unknown at this time whether or not Adams will be available for tonight’s home matchup with the Portland Trail Blazers (18-25). Whether or not Adams plays will be a major key to how the Thunder plays on both ends of the floor, but the Blazers are dealing with a key injury as well.

Tonight, the Thunder continues the West Coast trip as they take on the Portland Trail Blazers (6-12). The Blazers have been one of the most disappointing teams of the NBA so far, and they are still struggling to figure out their identity. They recently signed Carmelo Anthony, but they have yet to really put anything together.

Tonight, the Thunder hosts the Portland Trail Blazers (2-2). The Blazers ended OKC’s season in the first round of the playoffs back in April whenever Damian Lillard hit a ridiculous buzzer beater and waved goodbye to the Thunder as we know it.
